It has been common practice for unions and employers for the better part of the 20th century and into this century. and it doesnt seem to me it needs to be changed now. especially with an extreme lack of compelling evidence to indicate that the current process has failed and in view of strong public and union opposition to doing away with the secret ballot. The Employee Free Choice Act crushes employee democracy. eliminates free choice for workers to unionize. and could expose workers to coercion. therefore. it should be defeated. As I said I will join my colleagues in voting against cloture. not because I fear the debateI think that would be healthybut because clearly it is not going to pass. We might as well move on to our next item of business. which is the immigration bill. I thank the ranking member.
