Card Check is based on the premise that unions are always the best answer for workers. What do you think?
Increasingly in today's world, employers and employees alike are realizing their economic well being in a fiercely competitive global economy is best protected through constructive dialogue and collaborative approaches to address workplace issues – rather than through the more confrontational model of employer-employee relations typical of union organizing campaigns and under collective bargaining agreements.
Think about workers at union companies you know about, maybe even in your community. Some of them have seen thousands of jobs steadily disappear despite decades of union representation, while workers at other companies have consistently rejected unions and have enjoyed comparable wages, benefits, and job security.
Card Check takes an already confrontational process and makes it even more so by allowing unions to effectively eliminate the secret ballot process. Under current law, the secret ballot forces both union and management representatives to behave fairly during union organizing efforts. If either side uses intimidation or scare tactics, workers can reject that behavior in the secret ballot election. Card Check would eliminate that safeguard.
