President Obama’s recent appointments to the National Labor Relations Board are unfair and unconstitutional. He cannot make appointments when the Senate is in session – pro forma sessions included. As a Senator, he and other Senate Democrats relied on pro forma sessions to block Bush Administration appointments, a tactic that is completely constitutional.
The way he’s doing it now is not. It disregards our system of checks and balances which prevents one branch of government being more powerful than the other.
Tell your lawmaker NOW that this move is an affront to our Constitution, a danger to our system of checks and balances and a threat to our democracy!

They have tried for decades to prevent states from adopting right-to-work laws. They are now using their clout with the National Labor Relations Board to wage war on right-to-work states nationwide.

One of the biggest threats to small businesses and their employees, this legislation should be more accurately called the Employee 'Forced' Choice Act instead of the Employee Free Choice Act because it would establish coercive practices such as card checks and binding arbitration

Workers and employers have been under a massive union-funded attack during the past few years.
