Obama is wrong to cosponsor the bill that would overturn the National Labor Relations Board's "Kentucky River" 532 U.S. 706 (2001) decision.

Reasons to agree:

  1. The bill redefined many employees lacking the authority to hire, fire, or discipline, as "supervisors" who are not protected by federal labor laws. If you don't have the authority to hire, fire, or discipline, that means you are not a "supervisor".

Obama is wrong to circumvent the secret ballot requirement to organize a union

Reasons to agree
  1. Union leaders (often the mob), or coworkers would intimidate you into doing what they want.
  2. Unions already have too much power.
  3. The secret ballot is American. Taking away the secret ballot is un-American.
