Employee Card Check bill doesn't pass the smell test
"The act would grant union certification if a majority of employees signaled their desire to form a union by signing cards that would be submitted to the National Labor Relations Board. These cards are not secret ballots. Instead, a union organizer can be present when they're filled out … Taking away the right of workers to vote in secret on whether to have a union is fundamentally unfair. In advocating for this approach, unions have ceded the high ground and lost an opportunity to build support for its concerns about employer intimidation and resistance to first contracts."
