Mike Cooney on Jobs

 

 


Opposed limiting Montana public sector unions

Q: Support "right- to-work" laws, eliminating unions' ability to mandate dues for workers they represent?

Mike Cooney: No. Testified against 2019 House bill that would have further limited Montana public sector unions. "Why would anybody support people having the right to work for less?"

Greg Gianforte: Likely yes. Voted in Congress against bills strengthening unions, including one to give TSA employees same rights on the job as other federal workers.

Adjust minimum wage based on cost of living and inflation

Q: Raise Montana state hourly minimum wage above current $8.65?

Mike Cooney: Yes. Supports state's regular adjustment of minimum wage based on cost of living and inflation.

Greg Gianforte: No. "Ultimately, greater economic growth raises wages, and we must keep the economy going to keep wages growing."
