The “card check” legislation was shut down by FedEx in 2009. FedEx had signed a deal to buy a bunch of new cargo aircraft from Boeing, and the contract included a stipulation that FedEx could cancel the order if there was a successful union drive in the company. Sen. Patty Murray of Washington is owned by Boeing, so she made sure the bill never got out of her Senate committee.

Very interesting.
I wonder if there is a similar poison pill existing for 2021?
