As part of its ongoing public education campaign, the Coalition for a Democratic Workplace (CDW) today launched a new television ad that identifies the positions of Minnesota U.S. Senate candidates Norm Coleman and Al Franken on workplace privacy and the mis-named Employee Free Choice Act (EFCA), legislation introduced in Congress that threatens a worker's right to vote for a union by private ballot.
The ad, developed by nationally known media strategist Mike Murphy, is the second spot in the series that uses a widely recognized character who will be easily identifiable to viewers and will use humor to reinforce the need to protect private ballots for workers.

I know that an organized work force scars the hell out of you 3% guys or you $250k and up guys. Companies that move overseas should be taxed to hell and companies that stay in the US should have vary low taxes. If companies move overseas for the cheep labor the items that they send back to the states should be taxed to hell.
The bottom line is the majority of the people are sick of the top 3% controlling the economic and political landscape for personal gain. The middle class majority will keep organizing and we will keep targeting the senators and congress men that do not conform to the will of the majority.
i hate puppets, i mean politicians. fuck the nwo, illuminati, royal imbred fuckin families, and the greedy international bankers who control the world... but atleast they say thank u when the shove it up your ass and break it off. have a nice day.
I wouldn't have a problem with a "secret ballot", but it HAS TO be a secret from EMPLOYERS too. Companies can't hire Jackson-Lewis to bust the union, fire workers who are union friendly, interview to captive audiences and still claim that the ballot is "secret".
This ad is completely misleading. Do your research. You think Norm Coleman cares about union workers? The Southeast Minnesota Area Labor Council said "Norm Coleman is not on our side.Norm Coleman consistently puts special corporate interests and the Republican Party ahead of the best interests of middle-class Minnesotans". Check his voting record. He has consistently voted against workers overtime rights, against strengthening Social Security and against extending unemployment benefits.
Norm Coleman supports the private ballot and our nation's democratic principles. Al Franken wants a system where Big Labor calls all the shots. Letting union bosses watch over my shoulder will expose me to all sorts of retribution if I don't support the union. I don't want anyone to know how I vote, not my employer and not my "friends" in the union; but this bill let everyone know how I vote. That's not a free choice, that's a forced choice.
