Take it from someone who creates manufacturing jobs, enactment the Card Check Scam Bill is a “lose-lose situation for businesses and employees, and threatens the fundamental rights of the very workers that the unions claim to want to protect.”
The erroneously named Employee Free Choice Act would strip employees of the privacy and protection of a private ballot, and replace it with the hostile approach of the “card check recognition system.” By removing the workers’ privacy, they will be forced to make their decision on whether to unionize in front of coworkers and union organizers. This could subject them to undue pressure and even coercion. This is undemocratic and, frankly, un-American.
