Democratic Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker signed legislation Friday that officially rolled back right-to-work protections that the state’s town of Lincolnshire had established.

Pritzker said the legislation, dubbed the Collective Bargaining Freedom Act, “ensures that Illinois and all of its communities will never be a Right to Work state.”
