The Bush Administration's Attack On Workers And The Eight Hour Day ... by Stewart Acuff, ZNet
If Bush can get away with taking away overtime pay from six million workers, then what is next on his chopping block? Social Security? The minimum wage? Child labor laws? We're angry, and we're not going to take it.
Rolling back collective bargaining rights for America's workers is his next target. When the Bush Administration created the Transportation Security Administration, thereby making airport screeners federal employees, he destroyed their right to organize and bargain collectively as private sector employees.------------------------------------------- posted 6:48 AM :: reference link ::
