Derailing The Labor Train?
Wednesday, February 17th, 2010 by adminBrian Johnson, writing over at The Daily Caller:
Although over 75 percent of Americans disapprove of card-check, the NLRB can implement identical policy, making the vote for Becker so significant. Labor viewed his defeat as a defeat for de-facto card-check, as Becker could change labor law via an appointment to the board. Specifically, Becker would help the unions get more of the type of card-check certifications they already can achieve under law, by ignoring or dismissing the complaints filed by employers and individual workers. This gives the unions a much freer hand to exercise their extortionate and deceptive means of getting signatures and pressuring employers to accept the signatures in lieu of votes.
