Andrea Joy Campbell: “I would support the content of my friend from New York's amendment if it was applied to the National Labor Relations…”

“I would support the content of my friend from New York's amendment if it was applied to the National Labor Relations Act. But, it is way beyond campaign finance reform. For example, it requires disclosure that I happen to support--how much of a union's money goes to a strike versus how much goes to organizing. I would like to see that part of the law. I would like to see the laborers of this country know where their dues are spent. But it is not campaign finance reform. And, by putting it into this bill, it breaks the coalition that is essential for Shays-Meehan to become the law of this country. I strongly oppose this amendment for that reason. We must be about our business today. Our business is campaign finance reform.”
