U.S. Rep. Rosa DeLauro, D-Conn., and Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., have been pulled into a lawsuit between two local chapters of the Service Employees International Union, which represent health care workers, and nursing homes. At issue is whether a campaign to pressure the management of the nursing homes during labor disputes crossed the line into extortion.
...
both lawmakers are now in the uncomfortable situation of being deposed by lawyers representing the nursing homes and are forced to provide a wide array of documents relating to their interactions with the SEIU.
The subpoenas, obtained by the Washington Examiner, require them to be deposed at a Washington law firm, Blumenthal on March 11 and DeLauro on March 13. Both will be required to bring with them a broad range of documents, including any in their possession related to the SEIU.
...
Other Connecticut politicians also have been told to appear for oral depositions, including Connecticut Gov. Dannel Malloy, state Attorney General George Jepson, and two members of the Connecticut Senate, Sen. John Fonfara and Sen. Russ Morin.

Partisan democrats in bed with unions? Who woulda thunk it?

Extortion is SEIU’s method of operation.
I expect the MSM to surround these RATS with a ring of steel.
They REALLY don’t want voters to know how deep this goes.
DeLauro has already been judged fugly...and she’s currently serving a life sentence.
Pass the popcorn, this could get really entertaining!

The SEIU is starting to infect the UPMC hospital system here. They have bussed in a 1000 thugs and lazy oafs to picket the HQ in downtown Pittsburgh.
What better way to win the hearts and minds of working people than to tie up traffic and prevent people from going to Their real jobs?
