A ‘Duty to Bargain’ Over Employees’ Freedom?!
"Vullo makes it clear that using the threat of federal prosecution to force any employer to put employees’ Right to Work on the bargaining table violates the First Amendment.”
Rep. Eric Cantor (R-VA), the House Minority Whip, correctly charged that taxpayers are footing the bill for the General Motors, United Autoworkers Union bailout because Michigan refuses to enact a Right to Work law.
“I think all of us can look at the model in Detroit and understand what was wrong, and structurally compare that to the other manufacturers in the right-to-work states and see what we needed to do,” he said during an appearance on CNBC.
Cantor also echoed concerns by some other Republican lawmakers that the Obama administration had favored union interests over bondholders in its bailout agreement with GM.
“There has been a downright suspension of the law,” Cantor complained about the bondholders’ treatment.
"Vullo makes it clear that using the threat of federal prosecution to force any employer to put employees’ Right to Work on the bargaining table violates the First Amendment.”
“Under the FLCA [...] monopolistic union contracts would be imposed on employees and business owners after only 120 days of negotiation."
"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.”
