Democrats can't pass the PRO Act, so its buried in the reconciliation bill

How? Through the Protecting the Right to Organize Act., a bill that would expand the power of union leaders at the expense of workers.

After sailing through the House, the PRO Act now appears stalled in the Senate and Democrats are trying to slip some PRO Act provisions into a massive reconciliation bill.

Union leaders and their allies on Capitol Hill believe the way to increase membership after decades of decline is to pass elements of the PRO Act through reconciliation.

So via a massive reconciliation bill, congressional Democrats are trying to move some labor union provisions of the PRO Act by arguing they are actually revenue raisers.

Proposed penalties from the PRO Act include fining employers that hold staff meetings at which union organizing is discussed, and creating new fines of $50,000 per firm for unfair labor practices.

Equally harmful, the PRO Act would impose mandatory binding arbitration on contracts between workers and employers, if the union and the employer fail to reach an agreement on pay and benefits.

Today's workers have many options and shouldn't be forced by the PRO Act or reconciliation bill to pay union dues and fund failing union pension plans.
