  • As this is being written - majority sign up (aka "card check") is out of the EFCA.

    Now what are the anti-Union people going to cry about?

  • What about unions' ability to intimidate people into joining? Google this news story: "Card Check Process Used by Union Organizers Ignites Fury at Indiana Plant."

    EVEN GEORGE MCGOVERN, Democrat and one-time Presidential candidate, IS STRONGLY AGAINST THIS "CARD CHECK" LEGISLATION.

    YouTube: watch?v=afjp4Cx-3W0

    The ones misleading - nay, LYING - about the law are people like you.

  • If a group is trying to form a Union - what Union is there to intimidate? The employer is the one who has the ability to fire employees. McGovern wants MORE changes to the EFCA. Look up the current process - THERE IS NO SECRET BALLOT IN PLACE. If one doesn't exist, how can it be taken away? You obviously aren't aware of how someone Organizes, nor are you aware of what the EFCA entails.

  • Did you even read the story I pointed you to? Did you even watch the video? You're blinding yourself. But that's no surprise. You're obviously a blind union-pushing hack with that user name, anyway, so I won't bother trying to use something as foreign to you as common sense or LOGIC (even incredibly simple logic that's spelled out for you plain as day) as you obviously care nothing for such things.

  • I've seen it. The people who posted the vid won't allow freedom os speech on it - yet they claim to be for everyone's rights. (remarks need to be approved before posting) Have YOU compared the Bill with the current process? CARD CHECK HAS BEEN IN USE SINCE 1935! THERE IS NO SECRET BALLOT! (which means there is none that the EFCA will eliminate) Keep getting your infor from YouTube vids instead of the real world. Just please stop spreading lies.

  • You are the blatant liar here. The bill (until just recently - it's been amended) quite explicitly talked about what's called "card check." People IN FAVOR of the bill called it "card check." Union bosses pushing for the passage of the bill called it "card check" and said it's NOT what is in place now. You just make crap up, worm. It is 100% accepted that card check has NOT been in use in the way this bill was designed to push forward and there ABSOLUTELY have been secret ballots!

  • Sorry I've read the Bill MULTIPLE times. I've gone through the Organizing process. It's (Card Check) been in place since 1935! (Actually, the AFL-CIO prefers to not use the term Card Check" so that's a lie right there.) Anyone else can check the info and see for themselves that it is you who is the liar. Show one case of Organizing that has had a secret ballot. JUST ONE. I'll be waiting...

  • TJ"Yeah that's what you'd like unknowing Americans to think. Read the text of the proposed law. It allows a union to be elected on the basis of the signed cards and eliminates the entire secret ballot election process which follows the card signing under the current NLRA. The unions are dying and have been dying for some time. They've put all their chips into this radical legislation because its their only chance to boost their numbers. Obama has to support it since they gave him so much cash"

  • There's no secret ballot in place. That means that there is none to be eliminated. People like you are the ones misleading the public. Maybe you figured that out and is why you removed your comment? Radical? LOL Maybe so if radical means taking away employers' ability to intimidate it's workers.

  • Card check is what is currently in place. LMAO
