Iowa Curtails Big Labor Monopoly Privileges
The Iowa Department of Inspections, Appeals, and Licensing found that, from 2020-2023, nearly half of the elections that were required to take place [...] simply did not occur.
The Daily Caller reports “Twelve lawmakers wrote to House oversight committee Chairman Rep. Darrell Issa and Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee Chairman Sen. Joe Lieberman asking that they expand current probes into a Department of Treasury scandal that left 20,000 non-union Delphi retirees without their pensions after the 2009 General Motors bailout. The members — Sens. Rob Portman of Ohio, Thad Cochran of Mississippi and Roger Wicker of Mississippi, and Reps. Pat Tiberi of Ohio, Steve Stivers of Ohio, Mike Kelly of Pennsylvania, Dan Burton of Indiana, Bill Johnson of Ohio, Paul Gosar of Arizona, Marcy Kaptur of Ohio and Gregg Harper of Mississippi — are led by Ohio Republican Rep. Mike Turner.
Evidence suggests that Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner was the driving force in destroying the retirement savings of the Delphi workers because they were not part of the United Auto Workers union.
