The state Assembly will debate the right-to-work bill in an overnight session that is scheduled to end 9 a.m. Friday.
Under right-to-work, workers in unionized workplaces are allowed to opt out of paying union dues. Supporters of the bill say it is about having a choice and workplace freedom, while opponents say the bill dismantles private sector unions.
The Senate passed the legislation on a 17-15 vote on a largely party-line vote, with one Republican senator voting against.
