Steve King said "I, for myself, we have the law on the books, and this law is a neutral law. It's not one that promotes union labor, and it's not one that promotes nonunion labor. It's one that promotes the freedom and the discretion of the employee to make that decision. It does allow for union members to approach workers on the job. That's a protection that's in there, but it also allows the freedom for those workers to make the decision as to whether they would want to collectively bargain or not based upon a vote within that workforce." @ PoliticalQuotes.com
