    The Moving Picture Institute, in conjunction with Reason.tv, has a great new video out explaining “The Machine” that keeps teachers unions alive. It’s definitely one you should share on social media. With the Chicago Teachers Union going on strike this morning—or better stated by Mayor Rahm Emmanuel, “a strike of choice”—it’s important to recognize how these organizations can continue to operate despite the continued deterioration […]

    The SEIU infomercial “Labor Day” came out this weekend. Here’s what a few people had to say. By far the most honest review for the film comes from The New York Times.

    Posted on Sep 11, 2008 by Coloradans for Employee Freedom

    YouTube has provided a forum and an excellent study in contrasts for the Employee Free Choice Act.  Where Mark Udall ignores the fact that the Employee Free Choice Act will remove the private ballot from union elections, his opponent Bob Schaffer makes it clear that he is in favor of private ballots for workers who […]
