Recent study showed that 2/3 of companies broke NLRB rules when faced with organizing. Who has the power to intimidate - the Union that does not yet exist (the one being voted on) or the employer who has the ability to fire the employee? Please wake up.

【~Thumbs Up~ 】are the best words we can find. Very enlightening video!

And they turn off their comments on their videos.

Right on! I didn't see the price of Levi jeans drop, or Dickies work pants when they decided to outsource either. Now I support Carhartt and Red Wing boots

I see. I'm still skeptical though. If the unions really weren't biased with this issue and only were concerned with the time factor, they would find a way to be fair, have secret ballots, and still have workplace democracy. It seems like they are allowing a temporary inconvenience to be an excuse to get the policy they want. Aren't unions used to dealing with inconveniences?

I have been on both sides of the spectrum. I was an hourly employee, then mngmt at the same job. I have seen both sides.

I have been a worker with a 46 year career. I have been in units faced with the choice to organize or not several times. A secret ballot is a better measure of the workers' intent than card-check, which is unsupervised and subject to serious potential for bullying.

Let people choose by secret ballot free of muscle.

Why not tell the truth?

I have repeatedly gotten material from SEIU which is misleading and underhanded in its presentation; not what I want in an organization representing me!

It appears that you are only interested in the bad employer's best interest. This much is clear.  You don't care a whit about working people. Stop pretending that you do.

[jshowal104]

Do you truly believe that someone signing a card under conditions of potential peer pressure or harassment is the fair way for these decisions to be made? Again whose interests are you protecting? It would not appear to be the employee's.

[Stevietheman]

No, all they need to do is make their first choice. Why should people have to vote a second time? It's simple and fair. And nobody makes anyone make the choice the first time. So why protect companies from their own bad management and poor treatment of workers? Why do they need to be coddled?

Exactly whose rights is this bill trying to protect, the union's or the employee's. The only party afforded rights under Section 7 are the employees. To ensure that their true voice is heard, I think a secret ballot election is required. This video is just one example of the misinformation campaign that is being pursued by the supporters of this bill.
