"If Big Labor succeeds in pushing the FLCA through the House, as expected, the Committee will go all out to stop it in the Senate.”
Big Labor’s SEIU, UFCW and others allowed to opt out of ObamaCare
SEIU, UFCW and other unions that spent hundreds of millions of dollars of forced union dues supporting ObamaCare have filed requests to be exempt and have been granted exemptions from onerous ObamaCare regulations. ObamaCare continues to create hypocrites out of Big Labor and the Obama Administration.
