    After a Business and Industry Association debate at St. Anselm’s College in Manchester, the Granite Staters for Employee Freedom tried to get a straight answer from Jeanne Shaheen on whether she supports a worker’s right to a private ballot in the workplace.  Take a look at 1:22 in the video below – before the cameraman […]

    At a Chamber of Commerce forum in Portsmouth, NH, Jeanne Shaheen had yet another opportunity to defend her support of the Employee Free Choice Act, and again she she chose to attack the questioner rather than answer the question. [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rH9zAXu0bTM[/youtube]

  • Carol Shea-Porter’s Labor Friends get Fiesty

    Posted on Sep 19, 2008 by Granite Staters for Employee Freedom

    Outside of a Carol Shea-Porter event in Manchester, 2 of the Granite Staters for Employee Freedom asked some gentlemen from the NALC and AFL-CIO a few questions about the EFCA, and things went south pretty quickly. [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9b56oZCQnk[/youtube] The representative from the NALC, even if unintentionally, makes an interesting point – it was around 90 years […]

  • Senator Sununu Opposes EFCA

    Posted on Sep 08, 2008 by Granite Staters for Employee Freedom

    In stark contrast to his democratic opponent, New Hampshire’s Senator Sununu sees EFCA for what it is: an attempt by unions with sagging membership to intimidate, harass, and coerce employees into joining a union.  Senator Sununu has the clarity to see the issue at its core stating: The so-called “Employee Free Choice Act” is anything but. […]

  • Jeanne Shaheen Refuses to Defend her support for EFCA on Labor Day

    Posted on Sep 02, 2008 by Granite Staters for Employee Freedom

    Jeanne Shaheen refuses to explain her support for the Employee Free Choice Act even on her way into the AFL-CIO breakfast and at a parade surrounded by teamsters. [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXj0MMuqHK8[/youtube] If Jeanne Shaheen can’t defend her support of EFCA in front of union members it’s no wonder she has trouble justifying it in front of New […]

  • Manchester Union Leader Takes Notice of Card Check Intimidation on Labor Day

    Posted on by Granite Staters for Employee Freedom

    In Monday’s Manchester Union Leader, the editorial page has taken note of the Employee Free Choice Act, which they call an “Orwellian-named proposal [that] would actually remove free choice from the unionization decision.”  The writer cuts to the heart of the issue when he writes: The act would allow shops to unionize by “card check.” […]

  • Oh the Irony

    Posted on by Granite Staters for Employee Freedom

    Jeanne Shaheen’s campaign has accused her opponent of avoiding the issues. How ironic we have asked her several times about her support for the Employee Free Choice Act and the elimination of private ballots for workers only to have her dodge and evade our questions.  Check out her responses here, here, and here. So before […]

  • Carol Shea-Porter hates questions & constituents who have them.

    Posted on Aug 04, 2008 by Granite Staters for Employee Freedom

    [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pi1eK7Q_8tI[/youtube] Watch this video and you will see that Carol Shea-Porter simply does not like answering questions and would prefer to avoid any contact with constituents– weird, I know, seeing as she is a public official. Instead of taking the time to explain her opinion on issues she patronizes constituents to the point of disbelief. […]
