Big Labor’s Multi-Billion-Dollar Power Grab
Union bosses are rallying behind Democrat Texas U.S. Senate candidate James Talarico because he opposes Right to Work protections for employees.
Despite Iowa’s strong history of support for workers’ choice, Big Labor is once again pushing a new state law that would allow unions to charge fees to nonunion workers. The Des Moines Register notes that “the measure represents a major expansion of a bill that failed two years ago despite support from Gov. Chet Culver, a Democrat.”
Big Labor likes to call the measure the “Fair Share” Bill, but workers know it’s no such thing. The bill would force nonunion members to subsidize the outrageous spending habits of the union bosses.
