Eliminating the secret ballot makes workers vulnerable to intimidation, harassment and threats on the job. Under the Employee Free Choice Act unions would be certified as soon as a simple majority of workers have signed on.  Forced arbitration will lead to government take over of daily operations. I am gravely concerned about this increased role government will have in controlling employment in private businesses.

A better option is to review the National Labor Relations Board laws and provide harsher penalties for employees and employers for violations.
