I’m not in a RTW state and people in my state have been arguing about it as long as I can remember. Even after I read it, I still don’t understand what it means and how it could bring wages down.

It’s a euphemistic term referring to banning unions from requiring membership (which requires union dues) as a condition of employment. It allows people to benefit from union activity without actually funding said activity, thereby intentionally creating a [free-rider problem](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free-rider_problem) that makes unions be less financially stable, represent fewer workers, and therefore overall be less effective at advocating for employees. The ultimate goal of right-to-work laws is the destruction of unions.
