National Right to Work Foundation President Mark Mix recently appeared on "The Willis Report" on the Fox News Channel to talk about the economic benefits of Right to Work laws, the costs of government-sector forced unionism, and the Foundation's legal aid to workers in South Carolina whose jobs are in jeopardy due to the Obama Labor Board's outrageous complaint against Boeing.

Last week, Right to Work President Mark Mix sat down with Judge Andrew Napolitano of Fox News to discuss the protests in Wisconsin and the problems of union monopoly bargaining in the public sector. Check out the video below:

Right to Work President Mark Mix recently appeared on Fox News and Fox Business to explain how Big Labor is influencing the 2010 election cycle. Here's Mix on Fox Business discussing the hundreds of millions of dollars, largely funded through forced dues, that union bosses are spending on state and federal races:

And here's Mix on the Fox News Channel with Neil Cavuto, explaining how rank-and-file union members unwittingly fund Big Labor's political activism.

The National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation depends on the support of concerned Americans to fight in the courts to protect the right of employees not to be forced to pay for union boss politics. To support this vital legal program, please click here.

Yesterday, former Service Employees International Union (SEIU) chieftain and appointment to President Obama's "Deficit Panel" Andy Stern was reportedly being investigated by the FBI for his role in a couple of shady dealings while he was at the helm of the forced unionism leviathan.  But that wasn't the only big story coming out yesterday about widespread SEIU union hierarchy corruption during his tumultuous reign. From Ed Barnes on FoxNews.com:

Despite a finding by the Federal Election Commission's general counsel that the Service Employees International Union violated election law when it required local affiliates to contribute to its political action fund, the FEC's full board nonetheless quietly voted to overrule its staff attorney and dismissed the original complaint -- clearing the way for the union to squeeze its locals to amass a $9 million war chest for the next election.

Moreover, the group that filed the complaint, the National Right to Work Foundation (NRWF), didn't receive a full explanation of the FEC's decision in the case until after 111 days had passed, ensuring that its right to file an appeal had lapsed.

...

The NRWF, long a thorn in the side of the 1.8 million-member union, filed its complaint in October 2008, challenging an amendment to the union's constitution that required each local to contribute $6 per member to the international's political action committee. Those locals that didn't comply would be charged the difference between what they owed and what they raised -- plus, a 50 percent penalty.

"To us it was a prima facie case for coercion," [National Right to Work President Mark] Mix said. "Plus, it looked like a money laundering scheme as well, because locals would pay the penalties from their general funds into the political action committee. General union treasury funds are not allowed to be used for political purposes," he said.

Frankly, it's very unfortunate that the FEC seems interested in allowing Big Labor political corruption.  As Mark Mix explained in the Washington Examiner earlier this month:

Imagine the outcry if McDonalds executives demanded that franchise owners collect “voluntary” contributions totaling $25,000 for the company’s Political Action Committee (PAC) from employees at every restaurant.

What if the fast food titan’s headquarters followed up with a threat - pay us, or face a $37,500 fine? Do you think this heavy handed scheme would raise a few eyebrows at the Federal Election Commission (FEC)?

Replace “McDonalds” with “SEIU” in that description and you’ve got a pretty good idea of Big Labor’s latest political fundraising strategy. To meet their ambitious fundraising targets, Service Employees International Union bosses are now threatening to fine any local affiliate that doesn’t meet its PAC contribution requirements.

The only problem with this racket is that FEC guidelines explicitly prohibit organizations from collecting PAC funds by threatening members with financial reprisals. SEIU bosses aren’t exactly hiding their intentions, either – they actually wrote this fundraising provision into the union’s constitution at their annual convention.

If McDonalds had the nerve to collect contributions from employees using similar threats, you can bet the FEC would be all over the case. The SEIU, however, seems to have gotten away scot-free.

Yesterday, National Right to Work President Mark Mix appeared on the Glenn Beck Show to explain the looming fiscal threat of government sector unions' under-funded pension plans:

In the wake of the Massachusetts Senate election, National Right to Work President Mark Mix explained why rank-and-file union voters aren't willing to go along with union bosses' hand-picked candidates:

Right to Work President Mark Mix appeared on Fox Business yesterday to explain Big Labor's supposed opposition to the Baucus health care plan. The reality is union bosses are quietly licking their chops, because every pending proposal would hand them billions of taxpayer dollars and grease the skids for the forced unionization of the health care field:

Yesterday, Fox News followed up on its earlier story about a real-life case demonstrating how dangerous Card Check Instant Organizing drives are – and a clear example of the kind of intimidation and harassment that will occur at substantially more American workplaces if the Card Check Forced Unionism Bill passes.

In the new video report, seen below, Dana Corp. employees in Albion, Indiana, tell Fox News how United Auto Workers union organizers created an ugly and coercive environment. Many workers signed cards just to stop the constant pressure of union organizers harassing them at work, in the parking lot, and even at home.

Fortunately, an important precedent established by staff attorneys at the National Right to Work Foundation allowed these very employees to obtain, and ultimately win, a decertification secret ballot election.

But millions of American workers won't be so lucky if the Card Check Forced Unionism Bill becomes law since passage of the bill would wipe out the ability of employees to challenge a card check and force a secret ballot.
