Do You Know About EFCA?
Submitted by Cosh on Fri, 03/07/2008 - 6:50pm. EFCA, the Employee Free Choice Act passed the House, is stalled in the Senate, may not have enough votes for cloture, may not pass.
This Act would make organizing much easier. Workers would only need to sign cards. No lengthy certification elections. The first contract would have to be signed within 120 days or arbitration would begin. No more killing the union by stalling. Increased fines for employers who violate labor laws. It is the most pro-labor legislation in years.
