Senate Holds Hearings On Employee Free Choice Act - 03/27/07By Doug Cunningham Errol Hohrein is testifying before the U.S. Senate today on the need for the Employee Free Choice Act to restore the real right of workers to easily form unions free of employer intimidation. [Hohrein]: “Without the Employees Free Choice Act these companies are never going to do the right thing. They’re not going to follow the law. They’re not going to do what’s right for their people.” Horein says he was fired and his co-workers harassed and threatened when they came together to form a union at Front Range Energy in Colorado. And he says if Republicans block this labor law reform now, they’ll lose again at the ballot box. [Hohrein 2]: “There’ll be a lot of new names in Washington, and we’re gonna get the Employee Free Choice Act whether they like it or not. Because it makes sense for America, it makes sense for working people. Our government needs to take action and do the right thing where working people are concerned.” Collective bargaining | USW and PACE | Posted 03/26/2007 - 6:05pm | 539 reads
