The Workforce Fairness Institute released a statement today on President Obama’s threat to veto the FAA Reauthorization Act.
“If anyone needed to be reminded that the current administration is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Big Labor, a veto threat on the FAA Reauthorization Act did the job. The legislation being considered in Congress undoes a rule change by the National Mediation Board, which upended nearly a century of precedent requiring a majority of workers to support forming a collective bargaining unit in the airline and railroad industries,” said Katie Gage, executive director of the Workforce Fairness Institute (WFI). “After giving nearly half a billion dollars to politicians, union bosses continue to get bailed out by President Obama. Our hope is that the U.S. House of Representatives sends a clear message to the administration and Big Labor that they will not be bullied and worker rights come first.”
