There had better be a fight. I know I’m not going to let this one pass without one.
While the administration continues to blow a gasket and gush requisite distractions of smoke over the popularity of Rush Limbaugh, the President addressed ALF-CIO union leaders by videotape on Tuesday to assure them that, “We will pass the Employee Free Choice Act.”
This is that nefarious bit of legislation that will allow unionization of companies if a majority of workers sign a card in front of other people, saying yes, they want the workers to be represented by a union.
It is a dastardly bit of legislative payback by the union-owing President that allows the ever-decreasing unions to strong-arm their way into increasing membership through covert and what will assuredly also be overt intimidation. Peer-pressure is not something to underestimate but by taking away the right to a private vote for unionization, the President is ursupping one of America’s basic rights.
Organized labor is planning to “mobilize” workers in what they see as key states. Pray yours isn’t one of them. The President and the administration are already going to tax the incentive to maintain a business right out of employers, to the point that the smallest businesses are going to fade away and the biggest ones leave, both taking jobs away with them.
I hope he fails.
I hope he fails too! What you stated will happen and the union organizers are such nice guys…I have a bridge
