When a politicized NLRB puts unions over workers, how do we restore fairness? By fixing the problem at its source. Thanks to @POTUS, it’s a New Day at the NLRB — a pro‑worker realignment that protects secret‑ballot elections, free speech, and due process.

Union leadership treats paychecks like a progressive ATM. One SEIU council recently spent 38x more on politics than on member representation. Workers are paying for representation, but funding a radical political machine instead. Read the latest: coalitiontoprotectamericanwo…

"Union officials, rather than finding ways to make work easier for their members, are using members’ dues for their own purposes." They'd rather fund partisan campaigns than back tools that reduce burnout and boost efficiency. @GeneHamilton in @thehill: thehill.com/opinion/technolo…

Op-ed: Getting rid of blocking charges is the first thing the board should do with its new majority. But it is not the only problem the board can address. The Biden National Labor Relations Board also tried to stop employers from speaking to workers in all-hands meetings.

Good unions earn their members' loyalty. The ones forging signatures and funneling dues into politics stopped fighting for workers a long time ago. It's time to rebalance labor policy away from union leadership and back where it belongs — American workers.
Before there was a nation, Americans believed government exists to serve the individual, not the other way around. That inheritance is why I’ve spent my career defending the idea that free markets, free minds, and a free society are not luxuries, but are the bedrock on which everything else in American life is built. That is also why I’m partnering with the Freedom Foundation in their mission to protect worker freedom. dailywire.com/news/unions-si…

Union members are being asked to bankroll a political project they never signed up for. The Democratic Socialists of America want to use organized labor to reshape the American Left.

Year after year. Decade after decade. Teamsters leadership funnels dues to Democrats, then endorses Sherrod Brown in a state Trump won 3x. When leadership plays both sides, American workers are the ones left behind. @GeneHamilton lays it out 👇washingtonexaminer.com/op-ed…

Union dues fund lifestyles members will never have. Randi Weingarten: $500K/yr. Hasn't taught in 25 years. Nurses union leader: $300K/yr. Never worked as a nurse. AFL-CIO president: $357K/yr. Never done the work. @GeneHamilton in @dcexaminer👇 washingtonexaminer.com/op-ed…

American workers who want to leave their union deserve a vote. Not delays. Not procedural games. A vote. The blocking charge loophole has denied workers that basic right for too long, and we're doing something about it. 🧵

Then, former NLRB Chairman Marvin Kaplan, who participated in more than 900 Board decisions, published an op-ed in Bloomberg Law making the same case. The intellectual foundation is laid. The pressure is building. The Board needs to act. Read the op-ed: news.bloomberglaw.com/legal-…

The solution is on the table. The voices are aligned. The only thing left is for the NLRB to finish the job. American workers have waited long enough. Full breakdown here: coalitiontoprotectamericanwo…
