Big Labor War on Secret Ballot Intensifying
President Biden flatly rejects the long-standing consensus that secret-ballot elections are, with few if any exceptions, far superior to “card checks”
Take it with a grain of salt, but some Big Labor activists appear to be nervous about “Democrat defections” on the Card Check Forced Unionism Bill. The liberal Huffington Post quotes a union lobbyist as saying:
“There are no guarantees that this thing can get past cloture,” said the official. And it’s not because of Republican opposition, he added. “You’ve got Pryor and Lincoln who might not support it. There is Baucus, Landrieu, and even Bayh. And then there is Nelson of Nebraska.”
Apparently, even newly appointed Democrat Senator Michael Bennet (D-CO) is undecided too.
We have to keep the pressure on.
