Big Labor’s Obamacare-Paid Union Organizers, ACORN Returns
Lawsuit accuses an ACORN founder Wade Rathke established labor group of instructing ObamaCare navigators to spend time recruiting union members.
Cedric Anthony, who went to work for the Democratic Party’s Texas recruitment operation, filed a wage-and-hour lawsuit in June against two groups he says jointly employed him as a “federal navigator assisting people with the Affordable Care Act” – Southern United Neighborhoods (SUN) and Local 100 United Labor Unions.
Both groups were founded by former ACORN organizers, the latter by its founder, Rathke. In his federal suit, Anthony alleges his “responsibilities included traveling to school campuses to register cafeteria workers to the labor union and attending community events to register individuals for the Affordable Care Act.”
SUN has received $1.4 million from HHS to employ ObamaCare navigators, and its sub-grantee United Labor Unions spent $189,000 in 2013 as part of its contract to provide navigators to enroll people in ObamaCare.
