Lots of links at source--also more columns. >From the National Right to Work Legal Defense Fund. --J. http://www.nrtw.org/en/blog/stimulus-big-labor-02092109 "Stimulus" Plan Stimulates Big Labor's Forced Dues Revenue Mon, 02/09/2009 - 15:32 â€" Nick Cote Last Friday afternoon, as the Senate prepared to pass the massive, pork-filled “stimulus†bill, President Barack Obama quietly arranged to virtually ensure that every construction project funded by the federal government will result in more forced union dues revenue for Big Labor. The new executive order signed by Obama on Friday encourages government bureaucrats to adopt discriminatory, union-only project labor agreements for any “large-scale construction project†â€" defined as any project costing over $25 million â€" and thus discriminate against the 92.5 percent of private sector workers who have chosen for a wide variety of reasons not to join a union. With the “stimulus†bill approaching one trillion dollars including many such projects, Big Labor stands to rake in literally hundreds of millions of dollars in new forced-dues revenue seized straight out of workers’ paychecks, whether they support the union or not. (Meanwhile, other "stimulus" funds will go to groups with strong ties to organized labor.) President Obama’s new executive order comes a week after he issued two other executive orders giving the Secretary of Labor unchecked, unprecedented authority to blacklist non-union employees wanting to work on federal contracts. Taken together, the new executive orders indicate President Obama is quite eager to repay the union bosses for spending well over one billion dollars (in mostly forced union dues) to elect Obama and other pro-forced unionism candidates. Moreover, Big Labor’s high command is likely to funnel that money right back into its political machine in expectation of even more forced unionism power grabs â€" including efforts toward the ultimate goal of eliminating all 22 state Right to Work laws by federal fiat. __._,_.___ Messages<http://groups.yahoo.com/group/grendelreport/messages;_ylc=X3oDMTJmczlib29oBF9TAzk3MzU5NzE0BGdycElkAzIwMTk0ODA2BGdycHNwSWQDMTcwNTMyMzY2NwRzZWMDZnRyBHNsawNtc2dzBHN0aW1lAzEyMzQzNjg3NDQ-> MARKETPLACE ------------------------------ >From kitchen basics to easy recipes - join the Group from Kraft Foods <http://us.ard.yahoo.com/SIG=13rjol32o/M=493064.12016295.13271503.10835568/D=groups/S=1705323667:MKP1/Y=YAHOO/EXP=1234375944/L=/B=cp11DEPDhEo-/J=1234368744960146/A=5530388/R=0/SIG=11nuutlas/*http://explore.yahoo.com/groups/kraftmealsmadesimple/> [image: Yahoo!
