Federal Lawsuit Hits IGUA Union for Illegally Forcing DC-Based Security Guard to Pay for Union Politics
IGUA union officials provided contradictory information on amount a Master Security guard must pay the union to keep a job
Kimberley Strassel recently wrote an article laying out Big Labor’s 2008 agenda for readers of the Wall Street Journal’s “Potomac Watch” section.
“As Gerald McEntee, the savvy head of the American Federation of State County and Municipal Employees, succinctly put it,” she wrote, “Big Labor is looking for a ‘trifecta’ – the Oval Office, the House and a filibuster-proof Senate. And after that, the biggest rewrite of labor law in modern America.”
But it’s not a done deal yet.
“This is an all-in bet for them in 2008,” says Mark Mix, president of the National Right to Work Committee, a group that fights down in the trenches against coercive union power. “As market cycles go, they’re in their peak, we’re in our trough, and they’re looking for a clear two-year run” in an all-Democrat Washington.”

Thanks to the Committee's election-year program, union-label candidates like Sen. Jon Tester (Mont.) are being given a choice: pledge to change course and support Right to Work going forward, or face the potential political consequences.
Biden judicial nominee Nicole Berner has a track record of mindlessly repeating union bosses’ anti-Right to Work diatribes and defending their schemes to profit at the expense of the disabled.
