"In a move designed to promote Congress's aggressive pro-labor/pro-employee
agenda, last week the House leadership introduced into the "American
Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009" stimulus bill a number of pro-labor
provisions."
And, perhaps more frightening:
EFCA: Four Letters, One Huge Employment Law Change:
"The Employee Free Choice Act will make successful union organizing, even in Texas, the rule and not the exception. The bill passed overwhelmingly in the House last year, but fell a few votes short of passage in the Senate. It may well become law in the first 100 days of the new 2009 Congress; it has been designated as a high priority for passage by the congressional leadership.
I ask my Right Honorable Friends from the Left, how will these changes help to make American more productive? If, as those friends claim to agree, domestic production combined with competitive exports are key to (re-) building our nation's wealth, how will these two bills help? Will they promote domestic production (vs. outsourcing)? Will they encourage employers to hire workers here in America? Will these bills reduce costs of domestically produced goods to better compete with China?
