Ohio passed its own paycheck protection bill in 2011 following Wisconsin’s example.

Evidence

Following Wisconsin’s lead, the Republican-controlled Ohio Legislature enacted a similar law in 2011. See S. 5, 129th Gen. Assemb., Reg. Sess. (Ohio 2011). Indiana and across the country have begun to enact so-called paycheck protection bills that prohibit traditional methods of union dues collection. — Daryl Levinson and Benjamin I.
