They want to ban the employers from holding any meetings before work, after work or during lunch time. In other words, if you are not on the floor working, the employer cannot talk to you.

They tried this in WA State this year, but the union leaders messed up by sending out intimidating emails in a mass emailing and someone reported it as bribery. The governor immediately pulled the bill from consideration.

It’s kind of a sticky situation for the WA government because they are being sued by several branches of the SEIU for not funding their contracts at the same time that the SEIU is pushing for Democrats to support their card check legislation and threatening to pull funding from the same Democrats.

Exposing the incestuous relationship between the politicians and the labor unions is a good way to fight them.

Thanks, that clarifies that statement. I thought that was already pretty much the case, that people were paid if they were at work meetings not held during regular working hrs. If not my employer is very worker friendly.

Yep, the lists for SEIU members, ACORN members, and ‘Muscle for Money’ members is easy to get! Once you have one list you have them all!
