Foundation Helps Healthcare Workers Remove Unwanted Unions
Evidence of union boss “serious financial malpractice” exposed as healthcare workers seek to vote out SEIU
The Card Check Bill would help Big Labor activists steal votes in favor of forced unionism — essentially legalizing what Teamsters in Illinois tried to do:
Two former union officers and an organizer for Teamsters Local 743 rigged a union election in 2004 by diverting secret ballots to family members and friends who weren’t authorized to vote, a federal prosecutor told a jury Monday as their trial began.
Richard Lopez, a secretary-treasurer at the time and a former president of the Chicago local, is charged with former Controller Thaddeus Bania and organizer David Rodriguez in a scheme to steal ballots.
Assistant U.S. Atty. Nathalina Hudson said a slate trying to keep then-President Robert Walston in place for their own job security hatched the plan at a pancake house.
Bania entered a union database and changed the addresses of some union members so ballots instead went to the homes of relatives and friends, Hudson said.
