Trumka would sacrifice a baby to Satan if it meant he could turn 100 highly paid members of his union into a 1000 minimally paid members.

They only care about dues and numbers.

Hell, the baby could even be a union member and he’d do it. Membership is the last concern with union leadership in America.

I don’t get these union bosses. The rank-and-file get screwed by illegal immigration, especially in the construction industry.

Legalizing them will go a long way to screwing over their members.

It tells me they don’t give a damn about their existing members, just want more dues from new members.

Union bosses now days don’t care for American workers. They only want their dues.

American workers will have fewer opportunities because of Obama and unions.

Trumka is a sell out to his union. He basically just called for his union members to have their jobs outsourced or take a pay cut.

"Union people who fall for this are useful idiots."

Exactly. How can any sane union employee welcome a massive influx of illegal immigrants competing for jobs? If I said what I think union employees should do to Trumka, I'd have the FBI at my door.

"Trumka is a sell out to his union. He basically just called for his union members to have their jobs outsourced or take a pay cut."

The question is, why do union members tolerate this crap? My only conclusion is that they are just plain STUPID!!!!!!!!!!!!, to paraphrase Jonathan Gruber.

And that is a revelation to you?

Running a union is just like running any other business. They want to maximize "their" profit and "their" power.

Today is an important step toward rational and humane enforcement of immigration law

No.

Today is an irrational mis-step away from rational and even humane enforcement of immigration law

Trumka sells his union members out without batting an eyelash.
