I forgot about another case where unions like to force election – decertifications. Ironically, the Employee Free Choice Act (which was just voted out of Comittee this week on a party line vote) only outlaws secret ballot elections for certification elections. Decertifications remain covered by the “unfair” secret ballot election process. I know this must just be an oversight by unions and their Democrat friends in the House. Now that it has been brought to light, I am hoping that the EFCA is amended to make secret ballot elections unnecessary in decertifications where signatures are collected by the majority of employees in a bargaining unit (or perhaps even where a majority of those employees choose not to be members in right to work states). What’s good for the goose…
