EFCA: Thinking outside of the box by using a shotgun approach to the Employee Free Choice Act rather than all your Easter eggs in one basket approach corporate front groups would now be in a tailspin trying to stop a dam ready to burst
Employee Free Choice Act / EFCAPrwire News: Thinking Outside The Box to Get The Employee Free Choice Act EFCA Passed!
http://efcanow.blogspot.com/Over the last few weeks while many corporate front groups like the Coalition For Democratic Workplace, Save our Secret Ballot and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Smile and grin on the fact that Senator Arlen Specter (R - PA).and Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) have retreated from supporting the Employee Free Choice Act (EFCA) in its present form, both labor leaders at the forefront of this fight and George Miller (D - CA)., Senator Edward M. Kennedy, and Sen. Thomas Harkin
must start thinking outside of the box to get the Employee Free Choice Act EFCA passed.
One way to do this is to introduce separate bills in both the House and the Senate based on some of the provisions of the Employee Free Choice Act (EFCA).Both Senator Arlen Specter and Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) have indicated they would seek alternative legislation that was less divisive.
By separating the Employee Free Choice Act into mini bills vs. its entirety the big business corporate front groups would have less to attack.
Snip: 1. Majority Sign up based on a dual card membership card.
Under this proposal the employee would choose either to have his union membership card be used for a petition to be filed on his behalf by a labor organization to conduct a secret ballot election by the National Labor Relations Board or he or she may desire to waive their right to a secret ballot election by indicating that they wish to have their union membership card be used for the purposes of having a card check under the Employee Free Choice Act (EFCA).
