GOP’s ‘Dangerous Liaison’ With Union Bigwigs
Josh Hawley distances himself from pro-Right to Work pledges, aligning with union bosses like the Teamsters, despite their history of corruption.
According to the Salt Lake [Utah] Tribune:
Dispatch Supervisor Roxann Cheever confirmed Thursday that she circulated an e-mail stating that the city’s public-safety bosses – not just an “overzealous employee,” as a police spokesman previously said – urged dispatchers to fill 50,000 envelopes with pro-bond fliers from the police union.
State law bars city employees from electioneering on the taxpayers’ dime.
Though the city’s “. . . top cop has denied any prior knowledge of dispatchers illegally stuffing envelopes with fliers advocating a $192 million public-safety bond,” . . . “an internal memo suggests the city’s police and fire chiefs not only knew, but actually directed the campaign.”
If true, this is yet one more example of anti-taxpayer collusion between public-safety employers and public-safety union bosses.

Thanks to the Committee's election-year program, union-label candidates like Sen. Jon Tester (Mont.) are being given a choice: pledge to change course and support Right to Work going forward, or face the potential political consequences.
