Political Quotes

“The Supreme Court in Town & Country made it very clear that an employer, in dealing with an applicant, has to treat that applicant, even though the applicant is a member of a labor union and even though he may be a paid employee of a labor union, he has got to give him all of the rights of the National Labor Relations Act. Now, the only thing that the employer is coming back here and saying is, can I not at least, when I know that that person is primarily there, and I have got the facts to prove it and I am going to have to prove it, general counsel is going to have to agree that I can prove it. But if I can show that his primary motivation is going to be able to help some other employer by whom he is employed or to whom he has a loyalty, do I not at least have that much right? Are we going to say to the small business people of America they do not even have that right? That is what we are trying to express here. And it has nothing to do with taking away the rights of people to collectively bargain or to organize or anything of that sort.”
