Sec. 101.102. LEGISLATIVE FINDINGS; POLICY. (a) The legislature finds that because the activities of labor unions affect the economic conditions of the country and the state by entering into almost all business and industrial enterprises, labor unions affect the public interest and are charged with a public use.
(b) Workers must be protected without regard to whether they are unionized. The right to work is the right to live.
(c) The policy of this state, in the exercise of its sovereign constitutional police power, is to regulate the activities and affairs of labor unions and officers, agents, organizers, and representatives of labor unions, as provided by this subchapter.
