That's not what a right-to-work law is.
Right to work laws are related to union workforces; they allow non-union employees to work in otherwise unionized workforces without requiring them to join the union (and thus be forced to pay union dues as a de facto condition of employment).
You actually refer to at-will labor laws, which describe the laws of all 50 states in the U.S. "At will" means that either party can terminate the employment agreement at any time, without notice, unless notice is first required by the terms of the employment agreement.
2 weeks is the standard notice required in most employment agreements that require notice, but 2 weeks notice is not required in most situations. It's simply the polite thing to do if you don't want to burn bridges. (I've worked with many people who gave more than 2 weeks notice, and a few who left the same afternoon they gave notice.)
