- journalctl 7y agoIt is ostensibly illegal to prevent employees from unionizing in the United States.
- p4bl0 7y agoThen the requirement to not discuss politics at work must be illegal too.
- journalctl 7y agoNo? You can’t forbid people from forming a union, but you can forbid things like arguing about the president.
- drewbug01 7y agoDiscussing things you may want to unionize over are often connected to the larger political realm, and cannot be severed. Here’s an example: should a group of unionizing employees be able to say “vote for candidate foo, because they support legislation that aligns with our unions goals?” Courts have said yes, and I agree.
- p4bl0 7y agoThe President, the Congress, the Senate, every political instance has a direct link to labor code for example. They can make or remove laws that have a direct impact on working conditions. Unions must be able to talk about all this.
