Labor Day is a reminder that workers like Maria and Erika deserve freedom from the tyranny of compulsory unionization.
The National Right to Work Foundation remains committed to standing up for hardworking Americans victimized by union boss coercion.
Ending the biased Biden-era "blocking charge" policy would be one of the most pro-worker changes the new Board majority could and should take.

Following a petition signed by hundreds of registered nurses and healthcare professionals at GW University Hospital, the nurse who filed the petition asked the NLRB to stop using its non-statutory "blocking charge" policy to block employees from voting to remove union bosses.
In April the GWU hospital workers (led by nurse Elizabeth Abraha who received free legal aid from @RightToWork staff attorneys) filed a decertification petition with the NLRB to free themselves from "representation" by District of Columbia Nurses Association union bosses.
@josheidelson If the union bosses want to complain about recusals, they can start with Craig Becker who represented the SEIU, then ruled on dozens of SEIU cases as an NLRB Board Member:

While the workers at Sherwin-Williams were able to have their election in a prompt manner, many more American workers remain trapped in union rank-and-file by union bosses abusing NLRB policies that undermine their right to vote out unwanted unions.

Sherwin-Williams employees in Birmingham, AL, asserted their legal right to terminate the presence of unwanted Boilermakers union bosses at their workplace. @aldotcom
Gavin Newsom learning the hard way why FDR called government unionization “unthinkable and intolerable”
And wrote to a government union boss that he believed that: "the process of collective bargaining, as usually understood, cannot be transplanted into the public service."
The position is part of a small communications team that works with @RightToWork's legal staff to convey to reporters, supporters, and the public the important work undertaken by the Foundation’s team of attorneys in defense of the rights of workers.

Looks like pigs can fly after all. Former chief legal counsel to Michigan Democrat Governor Gretchen Whitmer just penned a critique of public-sector unionism in the left-leaning pages of The Atlantic.
It’s almost as if liberals are rediscovering the truth expressed by Franklin D. Roosevelt back in 1937: “All Government employees should realize that the process of collective bargaining, as usually understood, cannot be transplanted into the public service.”
That’s good news, even if it took the recent costly LIRR strike to wake some of them up to the reality that union representation in the public sector lacks the economic and market guardrails that govern labor unions in the private sector (can you say “bloated pensions and unfunded liabilities”?).
Another key point missing from the piece is the political reality underlying all government monopoly bargaining schemes: the union representatives negotiating with government officials are often the very same union bosses those officials rely on to help secure their reelection campaigns.

Op-ed Rachel Greszler @AmericanFreedom: "Imposing binding terms on private employers and workers without either of them approving of the terms governing livelihoods is centralized control masquerading as “worker empowerment.”
Faster Labor Contracts Act would silence workers’ voices and empower bureaucrats

While workers at Sherwin-Williams were able to have their election administered and certified in a prompt manner, many more American workers remain trapped in union rank-and-file by union bosses abusing NLRB policies that undermine employee rights to remove an unwanted union.
We congratulate employees at Sherwin-Williams Packaging Coatings Group on exercising their legal right to terminate the presence of unwanted Boilermakers union bosses at their workplace.

With free legal aid from @RightToWork staff attorneys, employees at a Sherwin-Williams Packaging Coatings Group production facility have freed themselves from the unwanted so-called "representation" of International Brotherhood of Boilermakers union bosses.
Chicago Teachers Union bosses already force teachers to fork over roughly $1,200 a year in dues. Now they want ANOTHER $800 per teacher . . . not to improve classrooms, but to bankroll even more far-left political activism.
Teachers are finally revolting against being treated like an ATM for union bosses’ radical agenda. Turns out a lot of educators would rather spend that additional $800 on their own families than subsidize more “progressive” political crusades.
This is what government unionism really looks like: less about education, more about power, politics, and control.
And thanks to the Supreme Court’s Janus v. AFSCME decision protecting public employees from forced union dues, Chicago teachers also have the option during August to resign from the CTU entirely and pay $0 in union dues.

Mr. Miller's petition was filed with free legal aid from @RightToWork staff attorneys.
We congratulate Mr. Miller and his coworkers on exercising their legal right to terminate the presence of unwanted Boilermakers union bosses at their workplace.

Employees at a Sherwin-Williams Packaging Coatings Group production facility have freed themselves from the unwanted so-called "representation" of International Brotherhood of Boilermakers union officials.
The workers' effort was spearheaded by Jacob Miller who filed a petition with the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) seeking a "decertification" election to end the Boilermakers' exclusive bargaining powers over the workers.
