Who's behind the Nationl Right to Work (for nothing) Foundation

Natalie wrote this post back on April 5th. I meant to link to it sooner, but as the saying goes, vouchers happen.
"Have you heard the commercial that is airing on KSL from the National Right to Work Foundation? It is a piece of work, all right!

They start by saying that the teacher's union bosses are forcing teachers to work to overturn a popular, groundbreaking new law that will benefit Utah's education system. Then they go on to say that a recent Attorney General opinion stated that it was illegal to do this during contract time. Finally, they tell teachers how to get free legal help to fight the union bosses.

This heavy handed ad, full of half-truths, is brought to you by the National Right to Work Foundation, the legal arm of a union-busting group that is partly funded by the...(wait for it)...Walton Foundation [Walmart]."
