Boone County has become the first county in northern Kentucky to pass a local right-to-work law.
The fiscal court voted unanimously Tuesday night to join ten other Kentucky counties in approving the controversial measures, which prohibit mandatory union membership as a condition of employment.
Meanwhile, Oldham County government has voted to table its right-to-work ordinance until a federal lawsuit is resolved. A group of labor unions has a suit pending against Hardin County for passing a similar ordinance.
