Steny Hoyer said "I do not know whether that will be the ultimate conclusion, whether Boeing in fact violated the law by retaliating. And I've told my friends at Boeing that I don't know that that's going to be the conclusion. But I do know this: I am for working men and women having the right that they've had for some 70 years. And I believe that working men and women in America, organized or unorganized, are better off because we adopted a law to protect that right. Do not jettison. And I close with this. I quote from a letter sent by hundreds of professors with expertise in this area: ``We are dismayed that a single complaint should be the basis for so fundamental a reversal of longstanding law.''
