Sure it doesn't.
Nancy Pelosi:
If it's not going to unionize, shut it down! It doesn't matter, apparently, that employees there don't want a union!
Aweome!
Actually, the NLRB is creating problems and killing jobs, but don't try to convince Pelosi or the President.
And, for those who question me lumping the President in here, remember, he appointed the ding-dongs to the NLRB who are trying to tell Boeing what to do. He is also responsible for losing tens of thousands of jobs in the Gulf because of his anti-drilling policies.
Nancy Pelosi:
In an interview late last week, House Minority Leaeder Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) told CNBC that Boeing should either unionize its production facilities in South Carolina, or shut them down entirely.
“Do you think it’s right that Boeing has to close down that plant in South Carolina because it’s non union?” asked host Maria Bartiromo. Pelosi’s reply: “Yes.”
The minority leader quickly added that she would rather it simply unionize and stay open. But barring unionization, by Pelosi’s reasoning, it should simply shut down.
If it's not going to unionize, shut it down! It doesn't matter, apparently, that employees there don't want a union!
Pelosi may or may not know that workers at the South Carolina plant in question voted resoundingly (199-68) to decertify their union two years ago. Government policies that would close the plant for being a non-union shop would simply be punishing those workers for exercising their right to determine union representation for themselves.
Aweome!
