Abstract:
The Employee Free Choice Act would strip American workers of their right to a private-ballot vote, require companies to submit to binding arbitration, and increase penalties for unfair labor practices committed by employers but not by unions. Congress should instead protect the privacy of American workers and guarantee their right to vote in an election before joining a union.
