The new head of the TSA John Pistole has said he will allow the people that work for the Transportation Security Administration to have a union. He has no problem with workers having collective bargaining and says it will not impair the security of air travelers.
As I told you the union busting worker hating Republicans went crazy with rage. The Republicans in the Senate came up with a amendment to prevent the TSA from allowing unions.
Last night 47 Republicans voted for the anti-worker anti-union amendment. Last night 51 Democrats voted down the amendment.
The Republican Party has never met a business, a corporation, Wall Streeter, bankers or rich person that they did not love…did not worship…But they hate worker that makes an hourly wage.
The Republicans think that the working man is scum. The Republicans call union people “thugs.” I was a union member. My father was a union man his entire life. Even my mother was a union member during WWII when she built Liberty ships for the war effort.
The Democrats won this little battle this time..But the Republicans will not give up in their fight to make the rich much richer and the working man poorer.
They will try and defund the TSA. They will try and turn over those good paying jobs to private contract corporations.
The Republicans are trying right now to do away with the “union-controlled” National Labor Relations Board (NLRB). The list is long but the Republicans are attacking the FAA, FDA and other government agencies.
The Republicans are using the budget problems to get their pound of flesh.
