California is not a right to work state (none of the west coast states are, so it is probably a familiarity that bled over from Nevada and Arizona which are), so that is how they got around it.
Second, I don't know if I'm the exception or you are, but I've always properly understood what right to work meant. However, to labor, it is essentially just the right for employers to fire at will since preventing that is what, in their eyes, union representation gets you. Much less visible than the pro-choice vs. pro-abortion terminology war but you will see attempts by unions to label these laws not as "right to work" but rather "right to fire."
