    Issues - Union Democracy ENHANCING UNION DEMOCRACY & ACCOUNTABILITY TO WORKERS
    Protecting the Democratic Rights of Individual Union Members; Making Corporate Bosses & Labor Bosses Accountable to Rank-and-File Workers
    Chairman Representative John Boehner (R-OH 8th)

    Education & the Workforce Committee Republicans are committed to giving rank-and-file union members better tools to hold union leaders accountable for their actions.  The 1959 Labor Management Reporting and Disclosure Act (LMRDA) -- designed to serve as the first line of defense against union corruption -- requires union leaders to disclose certain information to union members about their democratic rights, including information about member union dues and how they are spent.

    Political Action Committee Contributions: 2001-2002
    Representative John Boehner (R-OH 8th)
    Total 2001-2002 campaign contributions:   $578,600
    Carpenters Legislative Improvement Comm, United Brotherhood Of Carpenters & Joiners Of America $10000
