Why is the BILL that takes away secret ballot priviledges from workers called "The Employee Free Choice Act"?

Question

Shouldn't it be called the UNION/MAFIA INTIMIDATION ACT?

Why do all the ILLINOIS politicians affiliated with the Mafia supporting it?

Answer 1

Oh, those labor unions!

  40 hour workweeks

  workplace safety

  child labor laws

WHAT will they inflict on this country next!

Answer 2

Yes, it is blatant intimidation.  If you're apposed to becoming unionized openly, you've just been flagged, openly.  You might as well be signing your own death certificate because that's what it amounts to.

Sickening to say the very least and highly unfair!

Answer 3

I have to agree.  What purpose is served by disallowing a private vote EXCEPT to allow intimidation?

And if the union in question is so great, why WOULDN'T workers vote for it without intimidation?

Answer 4

You'd like to work an 80 hour week for 40 hours worth of wages? No weekends? No Sick leave? No Maternity leave? No vacation, No Healthcare benefits?  Oh, and I almost forgot, if you're a female; you might have to give the boss a little to get a raise, promotion, or maybe, just to keep your job. These are all things the Unions and the despised Liberals helped eradicate!! Go ahead; Keep voting Republican. It doesn't matter one bit to me!!
