COLUMBUS, Ohio — The labor-backed organization behind a 2011 campaign against Ohio's sweeping collective bargaining law said Monday it's ready to unleash its army of volunteers, email contacts and social media followers against an emerging right-to-work initiative in the state.

We Are Ohio also plans to join the fall campaign against an elections law overhaul that shrinks the early voting window and makes other changes, its representatives said during a news conference.

Jim Adkins, a union plumber at a state prison, said the group will emphasize that "right-to-work is wrong for Ohio."
