Indiana Democratic gubernatorial candidate John Gregg's posture on the state's new right-to-work law has changed considerably in the last few months. Here's what he said in February:
"It's time to move beyond this divisive issue. Indiana needs a governor and a legislature that show up for work every day and works together with one focus -- creating jobs, whether it's for a union or non-union workplace."
And now, per the Ft. Wayne Journal Gazette:
But on the road in the last week, Gregg seems to be retreating a bit.
The Indiana Republican Party pointed out that Gregg called for the repeal of the law at a Hammond campaign stop.
And then a few days later at an Indianapolis stop he said if he is elected governor of Indiana, the new right-to-work law will be repealed.
Bold words on such a "divisive issue."
There were some unhappy Democrats in the labor community and on the left when Gregg first made his "divisive issue" comments, forcing him to do some damage control. But now, it appears he's come all the way around.
