Today, President Barack Obama’s nomination<\/a> of pro-compulsory unionism radical<\/a> Craig Becker<\/a> to the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) is scheduled to be taken up in the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions (HELP) Committee. <\/p>\n

\nNational Right to Work President Mark Mix warns<\/a> in today’s Washington Times<\/i> of the grave dangers Becker’s possible confirmation will pose to workers’ rights:\n<\/p>\n

\n

\n\tWhen the union bosses have the NLRB in their fold, workers who try to exercise their legal rights to dismiss unwanted union monopoly bargaining agents – or even to stop their forced dues from being used to elect handpicked Big Labor candidates – are denied even the most basic protections.\n\t<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

\n\tThat’s why, especially considering Mr. Becker’s record, it’s not a stretch to believe that – should he be confirmed by the U.S. Senate – Mr. Becker wouldn’t think twice about rubber-stamping even the most abusive forced unionism schemes cooked up by union militants.\n\t<\/p>\n

\n\tIn fact, as a former AFL-CIO and Service Employees International Union (SEIU) lawyer, Mr. Becker is solely responsible for forcing tens of thousands of workers under union boss control.\n\t<\/p>\n

\n\tIn one case, reports from a Los Angeles SEIU local union revealed that almost 63,000 people rejected membership in the union in 2007, but thanks to Mr. Becker, were still forced to pay dues.\n\t<\/p>\n

\n\tAnd Mr. Becker’s own words explain why. He was even so bold as to say unions were "formed to escape the evils of individualism and individual competition … their actions necessarily involve coercion."\n\t<\/p>\n

\n\tWith that kind of anything-goes attitude, it’s no surprise Mr. Becker supports "home visits," in which union militants repeatedly harass workers at home until they sign union-authorization cards, and even advocates letting Mr. Obama’s handpicked arbiters impose contracts on workers, without even allowing the workers to vote on their own contract.\n\t<\/p>\n

\n\tIn fact, Mr. Becker is so extreme he actually believes the only choice workers should have is which union they should be forced to join and pay dues to!\n\t<\/p>\n

\n\tIn Mr. Becker’s view, if an independent worker refuses to pick, he and the rest of Big Labor’s lackeys on the NLRB should be able to choose a union for that worker. This kind of Big Labor kowtowing is not only outrageous, but it’s also dangerous.\n\t<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
