THE NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD MUST BE LIMITED
(Mr. WILSON of South Carolina asked and was given permission to
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Madam Speaker, tomorrow, the House
Education and the Workforce Committee will mark up two bills to protect
all American workers by limiting the National Labor Relations Board's
expansion into the workforce.
The Workforce Democracy and Fairness Act restricts the Big Business,
Big Government NLRB and reaffirms the protections that workers and job
creators have received by promoting a fully informed union election
process.
The Employee Privacy Protection Act gives workers greater control
over the disclosure of personal information and helps modernize an
outdated election process by replacing current rules that leave workers
at risk of intimidation and coercion.
For years, the President's Big Labor bully has threatened to destroy
jobs, such as at Boeing in north Charleston, and to invade American
workers' privacy and encroach upon their rights.
I am grateful to the Education and the Workforce chairman, John
Kline, and to the subcommittee chairman, Dr. Phil Roe, for their
dedication in promoting the rights of every American worker and in
protecting American job creators.
In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget
September the 11th in the global war on terrorism.
