I work for the City of Omaha. And now they want to take away my vote.

The private sector must unite to oppose unfair union activism by elected officials and by public sector officials. We must make two big changes:

1.) The President has signed Executive Orders that can require businesses that want to contract with the federal government to unionize. And his appointed Secretary of Labor (a former executive with the Service Employees International Union-SEIU) has written rules to make it standard practice. There is no way that our government should be allowed to require any business to be unionized in order to get government contracts that are paid for with taxpayer money!

2.) There is NO WAY that the public sector employees, who are paid with taxpayer dollars, should be allowed to take the tax dollars we pay them and give it as dues to a union who then provides political contributions to elected officials who will agree to give them even more taxpayer dollars. It is a clear conflict of interest and must be stopped.
