Free choice act, the republicans fear it, it will
destroy Taft Hatley and right to work states

They want to bust the UAW before it can organize Toyota and the rest of them...

Oh never mind history

1. Wha?
What is this 'Free Choice Act' of which you speak? and from where does it originate?

2. Most Americans prefer elections to see about unionizing, not the free choice act
That is what polls consistently show.

3. Free choice means you can vote and the rights to vote states
cannot prevent it.

I'd rather have a secret election but anything that WEAKENS taft hatley is a good thing... should be repealed by the way

5. Getting a NLRB election to certify a union, ever since the so-called "Reagan Revolution",
has become all but impossible. But elections to DE-CERTIFY unions? No problem! Union-busting has become a Growth Industry over these past decades, and there's absolutely NO shortage of skillful practitioners!
