Iowa Curtails Big Labor Monopoly Privileges
The Iowa Department of Inspections, Appeals, and Licensing found that, from 2020-2023, nearly half of the elections that were required to take place [...] simply did not occur.
The Los Angeles Times is reporting that One of Los Angeles’ largest public employee unions admitted Tuesday that a staffer sent an email to members asking that they sign “fake names/addresses” on a petition being circulated by former Mayor Richard Riordan to place a pension initiative on the ballot. City election law requires that the petition carry a certain number of verified voter signatures to qualify. Service Employees International Union Local 721 made the acknowledgment in a statement criticizing Paul Kim, a work site organizer, for sending the email last week as the union prepared to kick off its campaign opposing Riordan’s measure.
It’s clear the union bosses will use any strategy including deceit in order to avoid reform.

“The fact is, openly socialist American politicians like U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders [IVt.], U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez [D-N.Y.], and now Zohran Mamdani also turn out to be rabid advocates of corralling workers into unions.
"Helping people like Zohran Mamdani get elected makes far less sense to ordinary workers, whether they are unionized or union-free."
