The main vehicle is &quot;card check&quot; legislation, which would eliminate the requirement for secret ballots in union elections. Unable to organize workers when employees can vote in privacy, unions want to expose those votes to peer pressure, and inevitably to public intimidation. This would arguably be the biggest change to federal labor law since the Taft-Hartley Act in 1947. The Democratic House passed card check last year, and Mr. Obama has pledged his support. With a few more Senators, it might pass.<br \/>\n\t<\/i>\n\t<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<i><br \/>\n\tCard check is merely the start. Next on the agenda is a campaign to repeal &quot;right to work&quot; laws in the 22 U.S. states that have them. Right to work laws allow employees to decide for themselves whether to join or financially support a union. Former Michigan Congressman David Bonior told a union event in Denver on Monday that limiting right to work laws is essential both to lifting union membership and promoting more Democratic political victories.<\/i>\n\t<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\nToday, the Wall Street Journal <a href=\"http:\/\/online.wsj.com\/article\/SB121979616286074815.html?mod=googlenews_wsj\">editorialized<\/a> on the fact that Big Labor \u201chas won the intellectual battle for control of the Democratic Party and is reasserting its agenda in a way not seen since the 1970\u2019s.\u201d The WSJ notes Big Labor\u2019s political influence, especially within the Democratic Party, has been steadily increasing over the years.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nAt the top of Big Labor&#8217;s agenda is, of course, more compulsory unionism privileges to force workers into dues-paying union ranks:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[889],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-331","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-blog"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Wall Street Journal: Big Labor is Back (And Ready to Assault Workers\u2019 Freedoms)! - National Right to Work Foundation<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/nrtw.org\/es\/blog\/wall-street-journal-big-labor-is-back-and-ready-to-assault-workers-freedoms\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"es_ES\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Wall Street Journal: Big Labor is Back (And Ready to Assault Workers\u2019 Freedoms)! - National Right to Work Foundation\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Today, the Wall Street Journal editorialized on the fact that Big Labor \u201chas won the intellectual battle for control of the Democratic Party and is reasserting its agenda in a way not seen since the 1970\u2019s.\u201d The WSJ notes Big Labor\u2019s political influence, especially within the Democratic Party, has been steadily increasing over the years.
