John L. Meeks, Jr. says:I support the labor movement. I hope for passage of the Employee Free Choice Act. Why? I believe that it is a fallacy that EFCA will eliminate the secret ballot. I hope that people will look beyond the spin and will discover the truth. Our labor unions give the workers of America a fair shake in negotiating for better working conditions. This scares many people in corporate America. This is why there is such a massive effort to stop EFCA.
