Thank God for Bob Corker
"Senate Republicans on Tuesday blocked a bill that would have allowed labor organizations to unionize workplaces without secret ballot elections," the Associated Press reports.
"Democrats were unable to get the 60 votes needed to force consideration of the Employee Free Choice Act, ending labor's chance to win its top legislative priority from Congress."
Tennesseans who are agin' giving big labor the right to strong-arm its way into the workplace should keep this in mind: Harold Ford, Jr., aka Junior, co-sponsored the Employee Free Choice Act when he was serving in the U.S. House of Representatives.
