New York Governor Enriches Union-Boss Cronies
In 2014, with Right to Work attorneys’ help, Pam Harris and other home caregivers terminated schemes mandating union dues payment as a condition of receiving Medicaid reimbursements.
Big Labor embarked on a project to push legislation that will force all private-sector workers to be under a union-controlled contract with their employers according AFL-CIO head honcho Richard “Dick” Trumka.
During and after a meeting with Wall Street Journal reporters and editors Wednesday, Mr. Trumka wouldn’t provide specifics about labor’s plan or timing. But he suggested employers should be required to bargain over wages with all private-sector workers — union members and nonunion workers alike.
“We believe nonunion workers should be able to come together and negotiate [i.e., have a union boss negotiate] with their employer ” he said. “Without [forced] collective bargaining, how do we [Big Labor control employers and nonunion employees]” Mr. Trumka asked.
“We’re going to try to get … enacted in the law that every worker should [be forced under a union contract], whether they have a union or not,” he said.

Candidate Trump wisely refused to give in to Mr. O’Brien’s anti-Right to Work cajoling, and by the Teamster hierarchy’s own account this is the reason he never received the union’s endorsement, despite internal polling that showed Teamster members lopsidedly preferred him in the general election.
Under the Election Protection Rule issued by NLRB members appointed during the previous Trump Administration, mere allegations of employer misconduct could not block employees from having the decertification vote they requested.
