  • Do Senators Pay Union Dues, Or Do The Unions Pay Senators?

    Posted by Andy on May 10th, 2008

    I’m amazed at how much power labor unions have over weak minded lawmakers. It is almost like they are Jedis. No seriously. The unions have so much power and control over Democrats that they can get them to pass laws that are completely against freedom, liberty, and the Constitution. 

    Collective Bargaining Legislation Scheduled For A Vote On Monday, May 12

    Urge your Senator to “VOTE NO!”

     

    On Monday, May 12, the U.S. Senate is scheduled to begin consideration of the mandatory collective bargaining legislation, the Public Safety Employer - Employee Cooperation Act of 2007 (H.R. 980/S. 2123).  This legislation would preempt local government authority by forcing local goverments to negotiate with labor unions representing public safety officers over the terms and conditions of employment with labor regardless of state constitutions, state laws, and local laws.  The House passed this legislation last year.

    NLC strongly opposes this legislation because it interferes with states rights, violates federalism principles, and may be unconstitutional.

    Call your Senators and urge them to “VOTE NO” to Mandatory Collective Bargaining (S. 2123/H.R. 980). 

    It is amazing to me that the very same people who object to the CIA tracking terrorist phone calls are so willing to hand over a worker’s and citizen taxpayer’s rights.
