From the National Right to Work legal Defense Foundation:
Have you registered your opposition to the Obama Labor Board's latest scheme designed to force workers under union-boss control?
Monday, August 22 is the last day the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) will accept comments on its proposed changes to union certification election procedures. It is NLRB-2011-0002-0001
Over 17,000 individuals have submitted comments -- mostly Right to Work supporters who have written to express their outrage with this latest union-boss power grab.
In fact, one former NLRB board member told The Daily Caller this week that he hasn't seen the public turn up the heat on the NLRB like this in almost 40 years.
Between the outrageous complaint against Boeing for creating jobs in Right to Work South Carolina and this new backdoor "card check" scheme, the Obama Labor Board's unprecedented overreach has understandably caught the attention of concerned citizens like you.
The NLRB's proposed new election guidelines are designed to make union certification elections as one-sided as possible by:
** Encouraging union operatives to conduct stealth organizing campaigns for months or even years until they collect "union authorization cards" from just 30 percent of the workforce;
** Ambushing the rest of the workforce with quick-snap elections just days after union organizers turn the cards in to the NLRB;
** Denying workers sufficient time to counter union-boss propaganda, educate themselves and coworkers about the effects of unionization, and organize in opposition to the union;
** Forcing companies to hand over to union organizers the name, address, phone number, email address, and shift schedule of each employee, exposing workers to "home visits" and other intimidation tactics.
Foundation staff attorney William Messenger argued at the Board's open meeting last month against the new ambush election procedures, and the Foundation filed its formal comments this week.
But it's vital the Board hears from citizens like you, including private-sector workers who could soon find themselves ambushed with a quick-snap union certification election.

The Obama Labor Board is out of control. Please, act right away.
