\nAn article<\/a> in The New Republic<\/i> points to the tens of millions of dollars being spent by union officials on politics and specifically focuses on the massive involvement by the so-called "Change to Win" union coalition in politics. \n<\/p>\n

\nThe article calls Change to Win’s decision to endorse Obama an "about-face," citing Change to Win’s early declarations that it would not focus on politics but on organizing. Yet, Change to Win’s emphasis on politics (led by SEIU top boss Andy Stern) really wasn’t that hard to predict.\n<\/p>\n

\nIn fact, back in 2005 when Change to Win union bosses split from the AFL-CIO union hierarchy National Right to Work Foundation Vice President Stefan Gleason had this to say<\/a>:\n<\/p>\n

\n

\n\tThis political posturing within ultra-elite union hierarchies amounts to nothing more than a shell game by power-hungry union officials bent on control over more than $10 billion in compulsory union dues. In the end, it doesn\u2019t matter who is steering Big Labor\u2019s ship as long as individual workers continue to be strapped to the mast.\n\t<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\nUltimately, it is not Change to Win’s flip-flop on its rhetoric about that political spending that is the real hypocrisy, but the split itself…\n<\/p>\n

\nChange to Win left the AFL-CIO because Change to Win union officials objected to how dues money was being spent and they didn’t like the representation they were receiving from the AFL-CIO. Yet, everyday individual employees who object to how their dues are being spent and to the representation that they are getting from union bosses are told to just pay up or be fired<\/i>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
