Big Money Scare Tactics
Are you scared yet?
The Employee Free Choice Act is not that much different from current law. Current law allows for majority sign up or secret ballot. Current law lets management decide if workers can unionize. The Employee Free Choice Act keeps the majority sign up or secret ballot. What it changes is it lets workers decide if they want to form a union, without management/employer involvement.
Taking away the secret ballot is a false statement that has gained tremendous spin from big corporations, like Wal Mart, McDonald's, Home Depot, and from the US Chamber of Commerce. Also business groups have poured money into the "no secret ballot" campaign.
The way things are now, the law favors the employers.
The Employee Free Choice Act is just that, it lets the workers decide, without harrassment, intimidation, threats, from employers if they want to form a union.
