		<description><![CDATA[The FAA reauthorization bill has passed Congress with its anti-union provisions. Once again big companies of the 1% were able to use their money and power to buy legislation that hurts 99% of us. And many Dems joined in. Watch the powerful video at the end of this post.

Lucky for him the feeling isn&#8217;t mutual that that side of the economic divide. According to recent FEC filings, the very rich are [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Not long ago, in A Win For Labor &#8211; FAA Bill Drops Anti-Union Language, I wrote that, &#8220;negotiators have dropped the anti-union language for votes to start a union. Republicans were insisting that no-shows be counted as &#8220;No&#8221; votes. Delta&#8217;s check must have been mailed late.&#8221; Well, not so fast.

		<description><![CDATA[Indiana is about to pass what is called a &#8220;right-to-work&#8221; law. These laws prohibit union contracts from requiring workers to be in the union and paying dues to the union, while forcing the unions to provide full benefits to the non-unions members for free. The idea is to weaken and defund the union&#8217;s (99%) ability [...]]]></description>
