Justin's Political Corner

The International Union of Painters and Allied Trades released a video on Monday that gathers together all of Mitt Romney’s anti-union statements during the 2012 campaign. He covers a lot of ground. If elected, he said he would:

• End preference for unionized companies in government contracting.
• End project labor agreements.
• Fight to repeal the Davis-Bacon Act.
• Make sure that workers have a “secret ballot” (Something they already have, of course, but this is coded language for opposing the Employee Free Choice Act).
• Fight for right-to-work (for less) laws.
• Oppose “card check.”
• Undercut the ability of the National Labor Relations Board to do its job.
• Prevent unions from being able to spend member dues on political activity without the express approval of the individual members.
