Event Description

Presented by BILL LULIAS, Retired Vice Chairman/Representative of Brotherhood Locomotive Engineers

Bill was targeted by the Unions for:
-- "snitching" about corruption
-- not supporting their political candidates
-- being a member of Heritage Foundation

Bill says:
"Now the Obama administration wants to appoint a man to fill a vacancy in the NLRB (National Labor Relations Board) who is not only a past council to SEIU but has also written extensively on his belief that this country should invoke MANDATORY union membership across the board."

"Unions are necessary in some industries, like the railroad and what used to be an auto industry, but what has evolved is now dangerous, crippling and counterproductive to our country and economy." Watch the video about a Ford plant in South America that puts our plants to shame and the Unions are not allowed in their system.

It would have been nice to have more than a handful of people show up today for the letter drop on Corrine Brown. I know we are all busy but I used my lunch hour to drop off my letter.

I am a retired Ford U.A.W. member - I am against the Health Care Bill we need some kind of reform to help those in low paying jobs afford some kind of good health care - we do not need a major overhaul of the best health care in the world - another reason is we cannot afford this disaster of a bill - another reason it is not right to many unknows by those that have put this together - special treatment to certain groups - gray areas that have not been explained.

lets start over and do it for the right reasons - the people

Craig Becker, Obama's nomination for NLRB head: taken from Michelle Malkin's site.

Big Labor’s defeated NLRB nominee Craig Becker: He’s baaack
By Michelle Malkin • March 3, 2010 05:40 PM
I said they wouldn’t give up easily. They never do.
On Feb. 9, radical SEIU lawyer Craig Becker’s nomination to the National Labor Relations Board was defeated on a cloture vote by 52-33.
Well, word today in D.C. is that Becker’s back:
The Obama administration is hinting at a possible recess appointment for a controversial nominee to the National Labor Relations Board.
Labor Secretary Hilda Solis told AFL-CIO officials at their annual meeting Wednesday there will soon be positive news on the long-stalled nomination of union lawyer Craig Becker.
Solis then told reporters the unions will be “very pleased” with how the issue is resolved.
President Barack Obama upset union leaders when he decided not to appoint Becker during a Congressional recess last month. Union officials now think Obama may act when Congress breaks for Easter.
The Workforce Fairness Institute calls it what it is: Payback.
The Workforce Fairness Institute (WFI) today released the following statement in response to Labor Secretary Hilda Solis telling members of the American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations (AFL-CIO) at their annual meeting in Disney World that they will receive “positive news” concerning the nomination of Craig Becker to the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) in spite of the fact that the U.S. Senate rejected his nomination in a bipartisan vote:
“Just as its revealed union bosses will spend millions of dollars during the 2010 election cycle in support of pro-labor candidates, the Obama Administration appears to be yielding to the demands of Big Labor and will announce a recess appointment of Craig Becker,” said Katie Packer, executive director of the Workforce Fairness Institute. “Despite the fact that both Republicans and Democrats rejected Becker’s nomination, it looks like labor bosses will receive the ‘payback’ they have desperately been seeking. Just weeks ago, President Obama stood before the nation in his first State of the Union address and told American citizens that the economy was his top priority, yet his embrace of a radical nominee who supports job-killing policies is an affront to our country’s small businesses.”


A recess appointment occurs when the President of the United States fills a vacant federal position, of a sufficiently senior level that the nomination must be confirmed by the Senate, while the Senate is in recess. To be confirmed, the appointment must be approved by the Senate by the end of the next session of Congress (which in current practice means by roughly the end of the next calendar year), or the position becomes vacant again. Recess appointments are authorized by Article II, Section 2 of the U.S. Constitution: "The President shall have Power to fill up all Vacancies that may happen during the Recess of the Senate, by granting Commissions which shall expire at the End of their next Session."

RYAN NICHOLS - Hardened Criminal?? Seriously??

If you're not already aware. This is what's going on in DC while dangerous criminals are allowed back out on the streets.  It's horrifying that this is happening to our citizens and veterans for protesting the hijacking of our election process. This is still happening! They are STILL being tortured and treated like full on terrorists. 

You may not be aware of the typical things they're forced to go through...…
