WASHINGTON – The National Labor Relations Board on Friday threatened to sue Arizona, South Carolina, South Dakota and Utah over constitutional amendments guaranteeing workers the right to a secret ballot in union elections.
The agency's acting general counsel, Lafe Solomon, said the amendments conflict with federal law, which gives employers the option of recognizing a union if a majority of workers sign cards that support unionizing.
The amendments, approved Nov. 2, have taken effect in South Dakota and Utah, and will do so soon in Arizona and South Carolina.
Business and anti-union groups sought the amendments, arguing that such secrecy is necessary to protect workers against union intimidation. They are concerned that Congress might enact legislation requiring employers to allow the "card check" process for forming unions instead of secret ballot elections. More here:
And every day it becomes more clear that we have to give the federal government a beating (election wise) that it will never ... ever forget. We whipped its ass in the last election but it's still flailing away at our freedom. The states defeated Cap & Trade but the federal government is going ahead anyway through the EPA and the regulatory process. You know why? Because they don't give a damn, that's why. You morons are out there voting with abandon and they just can't have that ... unless you agree with them.
LMAO -- the "Democratics" ... they are the FARTHEST thing from "democratic" as they can get. Ohhhh, the irony.
