The "Free Choice" Act Exposed.

• What if a union could march into your company without a vote?

• What if a government appointed arbitrator had the power to force you to agree to union demands - even if those demands might bankrupt your company?

• On March 1, 2007 the U.S. House of Representatives voted 241 to 185 to do just that.

“A Union Organizer’s
Dream Come True”

A former top union organizer with one of America’s largest International Unions calls the EFCA, “an organizer’s dream come true.” Here’s why: 

• It gets rid of secret ballot elections in union organizing campaigns.

• It provides stiff penalties, including mandatory injunctions, triple back-pay and $20,000 fines (per incident).

• Most shocking of all: it requires mandatory arbitration for first contracts. This puts outside arbitrators in charge of the most important business decisions of your company. The results for your business (and perhaps the American economy) will be disastrous.

Why Smart Employers Fear the
Employee Free Choice Act

Unions win 60 percent of government-supervised elections today. With card-check agreements, however, unions get into the company more than 80 percent of the time. And that spells big trouble for employers.

Unions know that card-check agreements virtually guarantee them success. That is why so few employers will agree to card-check.
