Guest guest Posted May 29, 2009 Report Share Posted May 29, 2009 Letter to send at the bottom. Or call your senators and congressman. Protect our workers from ENFORCEDUnionism. Dear Jan,President Barack Obama is putting the pieces into place to crush every worker and every business in America under the weight of more forced unionism. Last month, President Obama announced his intention to nominate SEIU and AFL-CIO union lawyer Craig Becker – a forced unionism extremist – to the National Labor Relations Board.Becker’s views on the secret ballot, card check, and other key labor issues are even more radical than even a typical union boss apologist.That’s why it’s vital you contact your Senators today urging them to oppose Craig Becker’s nomination to the NLRB. I’ll give you your Senators’ phone numbers in a minute, but first, let me tell you why this forced unionism extremist’s nomination is so dangerous.You see, the National Labor Relations Board oversees the secret ballot elections in union certification drives and resolves unfair labor practices committed by union organizers – and Becker’s long paper trail indicates an extreme hostility to individual freedom.In fact, Becker believes that workers shouldn’t even have a choice of whether or not to form a union. Under Becker’s world view, workers’ only choice should be to which union officials they must pay their dues to get or keep a job.If the Senate confirms Craig Becker to this powerful unelected position for a five-year term, he could push the NLRB to an extreme we’ve never before seen – even more radical than Bill Clinton’s Board, which overturned years of precedent in an effort to make it easier for union officials to coerce workers into union ranks and misuse their forced dues on political activism.In Craig Becker’s warped world, union goons would have unrestricted access at the workplace and even at workers’ homes to harass and intimidate them into signing union authorization cards. Businesses would be gagged from sharing truthful and non-coercive information about the downsides of unionization. And millions of Americans would be forced into dues-paying ranks against their will without even the limited protection of the secret ballot.Please contact your Senators immediately and tell them not to confirm radical Big Labor despot Craig Becker to the National Labor Relations Board.Call your Senators right now and give them the message that Obama nominee Craig Becker is a grave threat to employee freedom and his nomination to the National Labor Relations Board must be opposed.Here is the contact information for your Senators.Senator Maria Cantwell - 202-224-3441,Senator Patty Murray - 202-224-2621For more information on Craig Becker’s extreme pro-forced unionism agenda, click here to watch a special National Right to Work video report and read a Wall Street Journal editorial condemning his radical views. And remember to call your Senators immediately and urge them to stand up for workplace freedom by opposing Craig Becker’s nomination to the National Labor Relations Board.Doug StaffordVice PresidentNational Right to Work CommitteeP.S.

Becker’s views on the secret ballot, card check, and other key labor issues are even more radical than even a typical union boss apologist. Becker’s long paper trail indicates an extreme hostility to individual freedom.Becker believes that workers shouldn’t even have a choice of whether or not to form a union. Under Becker’s world view, workers’ only choice should be to which union officials they must pay their dues to get or keep a job. This MUST not be allowed. We do still have freedom of choice here.If Becker is appointed, union goons would have unrestricted access at the workplace and even at workers’ homes to harass and intimidate them into signing union authorization cards. Businesses would be gagged from sharing truthful and non-coercive information about the downsides of unionization. And millions of Americans would be forced into dues-paying ranks against their will without even the limited protection of the secret ballot. Please do NOT confirm this man. It will be harmful to the country and our work force. Sincerely, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
