\nThe alarming trend of politicians forcing workers<\/a> into union ranks continues in Illinois as Governor Pat Quinn — in order to win Big Labor’s political support — is resurrecting<\/a> the sordid legacy<\/a> of disgraced Governor Rod Blagojevich (and Gray Davis of California) subverting workers’ rights to benefit forced dues-hungry union bosses.\n<\/p>\n

\nQuinn recently signed an executive order arbitrarily reclassifying state-reimbursed in-home health-care providers as state employees — thereby opening them up to forced unionism under state law.\u00a0 Service Employee International Union (SEIU) and American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME) union organizers, armed by the state with the addresses of Illinois’s nearly 3,500 in-home health-care providers, are competing to corral home health-care providers into compulsory union membership by going door-to-door to solicit<\/a> support for their respective unions.\n<\/p>\n

\nPam Harris, a mother who stays home to take care of her son with special needs, was visited<\/a> by two aggressive out-of-state SEIU organizers at her front door.\u00a0 Understandably, Ms. Harris is worried that the Detroit-style labor relations that destroyed America’s auto industry could also destroy her right to care for her son as she wants. (To say nothing of the union dues she will be forced to pay for the \u00abprivilege.\u00bb)\n<\/p>\n

\nBecause she does not live in a state with Right to Work protections<\/a>, if SEIU union bosses are successful in corralling all home health-care providers into forced dues membership, Ms. Harris will be forced to pay tribute to union bosses just to continue to take care of her own son — even if she refrains from formal union membership.\n<\/p>\n

\nHowever, as many Freedom@Work<\/a> readers may already be aware, this is just the tip of the iceberg.\n<\/p>\n

\nJust last month, National Right to Work President Mark Mix reiterated<\/a> in the Wall Street Journal<\/i> NRTW’s previous warnings<\/a> that union bosses are working<\/a> to unionize<\/a> the health-care industry and that under Obamacare, the very thing that is happening in Illinois will happen nationwide:\n<\/p>\n

Following [the Davis\/Blagojevich] playbook, pending government-run health care bills create a "personal care attendants workforce advisory panel" that will likely impose union affiliation on hundreds of thousands of folks like Ms. Harris to qualify for a newly created "community living assistance services and support (CLASS)" reimbursement plan.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

\n\tMs. Sebelius will be taking her marching orders from the numerous union officials who are guaranteed seats on the various federal panels (such as the personal care panel mentioned above) charged with recommending health-care policies. Big Labor will play a central role in directing federal health-care policy…\n\t<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
