Patch is providing live updates from Lansing today as the state Legislature considers right-to-work legislation.
Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder announced last week that he would put right-to-work on his agenda.
Following Snyder's announcement, Republicans in the Legislature put bills forward in both houses, prompting protests in Lansing by union groups, including the UAW.
More protests at the Capitol are expected today as the Legislature again takes up the proposed legislation.
