SEIU Rallies Supporters Against Kavanaugh Nomination
Washington Free Beacon ^ | August 12, 2018 | Bill McMorris

Posted on 08/13/2018 10:11:57 AM PDT by detective

One of the nation's most powerful labor unions is rallying supporters to oppose Brett Kavanaugh, President Trump's nominee to replace Anthony Kennedy on the Supreme Court.

On Friday, Service Employees International Union (SEIU) began circulating a petition online for its allies to send to their home state lawmakers. The union letter calls Kavanaugh a "narrow-minded extremist" and accuses the D.C. Circuit Court judge of undermining workers' rights and opposing abortion.

"Kavanaugh is a narrow-minded extremist who will chip away at our rights in the workplace, the doctor's office and the ballot box," the letter says. "If Kavanaugh is confirmed he could decide to take away the things that our families hold dear: healthcare, voting rights, union rights, women's reproductive health, human rights for immigrants, LGBTQ rights, clean air to breathe, and clean water to drink."

SEIU is one of the largest public sector labor agencies in the country boasting nearly 2 million members, but it could see those numbers dwindle after the Supreme Court declared forced unionism in government agencies unconstitutional in June.

They’re against him because someone told them they should be.

Reminds me of the people that call Ben Shapiro an anti-semite, or Milo a white nationalist (he’s married to a black guy).

They just mindlessly believe their local Alinsky clone, and off they go to protest.

He’ll steamroller right over them. At this point, Kavanaugh is unstoppable.

Yes, please get the SEIU members so angry at any Red-state Dem Senator who votes for Kavanaugh that the SEIU members won’t vote at all in November. Get the SEIU members to be fed up with the compromising Dem Red-state Senators.

from what I’ve been able to see, seiu is one of the most corrupted and communistic organizations in this country.
they even backed off from dressing up their members or “street troops” in communist party RED...choosing Violet instead to make them more acceptable

they rip off members for very high dues and provide almost zero genuine labor relations assistance ...
almost all the $$ goes into their national (mostly, some select state too)far, far, far leftist political agitation and funding

good honest Americans are forced to contribute to a seriously=radical political movement seeking to ‘transform’ (or overthrow) American values

RICO would a good start for them! but there are several more serious charges

When the deportation of illegals gets serious, SEIU won’t be so numerous or powerful.

MANY of their members are illegals, with false ID & SS #’s.

NOW you guys have torched my soul. *I* am a proud member of SEIU, raised fist and all. If my rulers say that Kavanaugh is a bad guy, I have little choice but to grab a torch and pitchfork, and march on like a drone.
Sorry, but freedom means little to me when the SEIU bellows out my name. I will goose step for my masters!!!
How will my “Kavanaw Suks” sign play?

I thought SEIU was more Tattaglia territory.

Oh, and dictionaries. He wants people to have access to dictionaries to see how full of **** SEIU semantics are. Thanks detective.
