Faced with criticism from the union bosses and their political directors, Indiana Democratic gubernatorial candidate John Gregg has a new “posture” on the state’s new Right to Work law that is bringing business to the state.
In February Gregg said “It’s time to move beyond this divisive issue. Indiana needs a governor and a legislature that show up for work every day and works together with one focus — creating jobs, whether it’s for a union or non-union workplace.”
But now, carrying water for the union bosses, he is seeking repeal of the law. National Journal says he has “come all the way around.” Big Labor’s political largess tends to do that to weak politicians.
New co-sponsors added to the growing list of members supporting the National Right To Work Act: Rep. Ron Wright (TX 06) and Rep. Rob Bishop (UT 01). That makes 69 co-sponsors in the U.S. House of Representatives and 20 co-sponsors in the U.S. Senate. Are your Members Of Congress on this list?
Union officials chalked up a staggering 3,633,290 hours of taxpayer-funded union time in 2016, at a cost to taxpayers of over $177 million in payroll costs alone for just that one year. This includes, for example, over $700,000 spent on travel expenses for union bosses in the Social Security Administration.
