Indiana: Democratic Lawmakers Return Following GOP Concessions on Anti-Union Bill 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Democratic lawmakers from Indiana have returned to the state after
fleeing five weeks ago in an attempt to derail a Republican effort to
pass anti-union legislation. Democratic House members said they returned
after Republicans made a number of concessions including withdrawing a
measure that would have made Indiana a "right to work" state, meaning
that no workplace could require employees to join a union or pay union
dues.
