Union Bosses Going All Out to Capture Congress
During the months leading up to Election Day 2026, Big Labor bosses’ focus on politics has never been more explicit.
House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa (R-CA) released the following statement in response to the National Labor Relations Board’s (NLRB) failure to fully comply with the committee’s subpoena issued August 7, 2011:
“The National Labor Relations Board and Acting General Counsel Lafe Solomon have thus far failed to comply with a lawful subpoena. This refusal by NLRB to abide by the law further heightens concerns that this is a rogue agency acting improperly. The integrity of NLRB and its leadership is clearly in question.
“The public has a right to know the truth about why a government agency would choose to take action to benefit organized labor that threatens thousands of non-union jobs in South Carolina while setting a precedent impacting manufacturers across the country.
“It is imperative that Congress get complete facts about NLRB’s decision-making process in this matter. Its continued refusal to fully cooperate will not deter this Committee as it moves forward in efforts to determine what occurred and to hold NLRB officials to account.”
During the months leading up to Election Day 2026, Big Labor bosses’ focus on politics has never been more explicit.
Committee President Mark Mix: “If I were a Leatherman dockworker, I certainly wouldn’t count on Longshore Union bosses to show any flexibility” to get the terminal reopened and “save my job.”
In many cases, employees who are denied the opportunity to vote out a union as a consequence of the Biden green light for Big Labor blocking charges never got a chance to vote on whether or not they wanted to have a union in the first place.
