Its called 'right to work' and its a disgusting anti-union effort, where a worker will not pay dues, but be afforded all the protections and benefits the union gets it's members. And then assume they deserve those benefits without contributing to the organization that does the actual fighting.
It was found recently that right-to-work states have a far higher worker injury & death rate than non-RTW, and lower wages. Its a race to the bottom.

Can't make unions illegal without an uproar (probably unconstitutional to do so as well, right of free association), but you can deprive them of funding by removing mandatory membership from employee contracts.
