Political Quotes

“This amendment is little more than a recognition from the Democrats that the PRO Act is truly a union boss wish list that strips rights away from workers, increases the coercive power of union bosses, and will make union corruption like we are seeing at the United Auto Workers Union even likelier. It is ironic that Democrats have chosen to offer whistleblower protection for illegal union activities as an amendment to the PRO Act after years of opposing more transparency and accountability for union leaders when the Republicans were in the majority. Last Congress, Congressman Francis Rooney offered not one, but two bills with whistleblower protections for union corruption. Both bills had zero Democrat cosponsors. This attempt to provide Democrat Members with a talking point is too little too late and does nothing to address the PRO Act's overwhelming problems. Madam Chair, I reserve the balance of my time.”
