Sen. Rand Paul and House Republicans have introduced legislation to strictly limit the ability of unions to force workers to have to pay them dues.

Both right-to-work bills would amend the National Labor Relations Act to prohibit contracts between labor unions and businesses that force all of a company's workers to join a union or at least pay it a fee as a condition of employment.

"Every American and their employer should have the power to negotiate the terms of their employment, and no American should be forced to pay union dues just to get or keep a job. However, when Congress enacted the National Labor Relations Act in 1935, it established the concept of 'monopoly bargaining,' which forces workers who want nothing to do with a union into paying union dues and abiding by the union's rules and contracts," King said.

So what is the AFL-CIO doing pushing illegal immigration? I suppose they are just “doing what’s right”. I call BS to the RTW laws bringing in illegals. The unions want to get to them. Yep, imagine the unions in lockstep with the democraps. O wait, they always are, what was I thinking. Every union due should have a statement attached”a portion of your union slavery dues will go to every democrap cause in America. Or maybe they should just call them Obamadues.
