The effort to get a statewide right-to-work law in Delaware has failed.
There was an hour-long hearing yesterday but in the end Representative Ronald Gray could not muster the six votes to get the measure out of committee.
The Wilmington News Journal also reports that opponents were not able to get the same number of votes to table the measure.
With the standoff the Selbyville Republican said he would not try to amend the legislation to get passage.
The right-to-work movement failed to get Sussex County to approve such a measure when it faced potential legal challenges.
It did get a boost when the Seaford City Council approved a right-to-work ordinance despite the legal issues.
