Business Lobbies and the Employee Free Choice Act
Abstract
While several individual employers (for example, AT&T Wireless) have agreed to card check recognition as an alternative to formal National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) elections, leading employer associations have aggressively opposed the Employee Free Choice Act (EFCA), which would extend this practice as a matter of law. Spearheading employer opposition are the Human Resources Policy Association, the Chamber of Commerce, and the National Association of Manufacturers. The anti-EFCA coalition seeks to mobilize the public through temporary largely web-based front groups like UnionFacts and the Coalition for a Democratic Workplace.Downloads
