Wamp — running — in wrong direction

Rep. Zach Wamp (R-TN) is supporting legislation that would seriously undermine and damage his state’s Right to Work law.

In a letter to Mr. Wamp, Mark Mix requests that Mr. Wamp remove his name from the legislation: “If (the legislation) becomes law, Tennessee legislators would be forced to write state laws giving broad new powers to public safety union bosses over public safety employees in order to comply with the demands of the federal government.”

Perhaps most disturbing is the fact that Wamp is using his voice in Washington to impose big labor’s agenda on Right to Work states. In Tennessee where the state legislature has opposed this very same concept again and again, Wamp is running for governor.  If he won’t stand up for his state’s Right to Work law, who will?

Right to Work President Demands Tennessee Protect Employees, Not UAW Bosses' Unionization Schemes

No union, but especially not one with multiple top officials convicted in federal court of accepting bribes and embezzling workers’ dues money, should be allowed to impose unionization on workers by colluding with company officials to bypass a secret ballot vote. That’s why it is critical that any state incentive package includes a condition that the decision over whether to unionize the proposed Ford-SK Innovation Western Tennessee plant be made with workers having the full protection of a federally supervised secret ballot vote, and absent any backroom deal between company and UAW officials.
