Employers dread the “Employee Free Choice Act.” They say it will make it possible to coerce workers into publicly checking a card for a union because it eliminates the need for a secret ballot in Union elections. Unions love it. They believe that organizing a workplace today is too hard and that management uses today’s structured certification process to intimidate workers. I say that change is….
But I have a question? Will it be possible to use “Card Check” to de-certify from one union and join another one. It should be. That simple act would make Unions compete and competition is good it lowers costs and improves service.
I propose to start Simons Discount Union. This is an example of how it will work: Teachers in California pay about $100 per month in Union dues. Simons Discount Union (SDU) will give the same representiation for $50 per month saving the average teacher $500 a year.
SDU’s proposal will be simple: “All you have to do is check this card asking to change union representation. Your card stays secret until we have cards from a majority of the teacher in this district. Then we start saving you money.”
