Educating The World on The EFCA.

Myth vs. Reality: The REALITY is the Employee Free Choice Act Helps American Workers and their Families.

Despite the need for reform, critics of EFCA continue to misinform the public about the bill and hide the serious shortcomings of current labor law. Democrats are committed to setting the record straight and passing this important legislation on behalf of American workers and their families.

MYTH: EFCA will prevent the use of secret-ballot elections.

REALITY: EFCA does not strip workers of their right to choose a secret-ballot election to decide whether to select — or not to select — a union representative. EFCA simply gives workers the additional option of selecting a union representative by majority sign-up.

The costs to everyone in the economy increase owing to that sort of vigorish, and it takes years to adjust and try to establish an equilibrium. It’s a tragic waste of time and resources. Bosses are vile and wretched.</p> At the hour that a workers union forms, management will hire layers of managers and other excluded support staff – especially lawyers for the contract’s interpretation haha – mostly to siphon future revenues out of the resources pool before the workers can ask for some of it.
