Publius Forum ^ | 11/01/10 | Warner Todd Huston

As Americans prepare to head to the polls to exercise their right to a secret ballot on election day, the Obama administration is poised to roll back that right in the workplace. By Obama’s orders, the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) is looking over a policy change that would undermine the protections for a worker’s right to a secret ballot vote in union elections in the workplace.

This elimination of a secret ballot is one of the policy changes that Big Labor has been pushing for several years now and is a chief component of the Employee Free Choice Act (EFCA) — better known as card check – a policy that Big Labor has been desperate to force Congress to pass.

Card Check would take away the right that workers have to a secret ballot when considering whether or not a union will be awarded representation at the workplace. This elimination of the secret ballot would leave workers open to the intimidation of union operatives who would be able to identify precisely which worker does and which worker does not support them.

Wonderful sticker!

The Union bumper sticker:

“Kill the secret vote! VOTE tyranny and totalitarianism!”

“Little people vote in freedom with the secret ballot!
Outrageous!”

“The Big People need freedom to force the little people, force the ballot, force the vote, force the outcome.”

“Kill freedom of the secret ballot vote!!!!!!”

“By the way, KILL ARIZONA AND STATE RIGHTS!!!!”

“This alone should get him run out of town, no the country.”

One would think that would be the case, eh? Unfortunately, this creep just keeps sliding this stuff by under the radar. Most Americans are wholly unaware that he is doing this authoritarian stuff behind the scenes.
