Oppose Obama's unconstitutional appointments

From National Right To Work Committee:

I fear that President Obama and his union boss cronies are setting our country on a path of no return.

From day one of his Presidency, Obama's National Labor Relations Board has been aggressively rewriting American labor law to give Big Labor more power, more dues and more political clout.

I've fought them every step of the way.

Today, I believe a U.S. Supreme Court case over Obama's unconstitutional "recess" appointments -- made while Congress was not in recess -- waits in the wings.

But this fight now moves to the U.S. Senate.

And I believe, without your IMMEDIATE action today, President Obama will get the last laugh.

Should he get his way, every outrageous decision the union-label NLRB has issued in the last 16 months will effectively be rubber-stamped!

You see, just recently, President Obama put the finishing touches on a new "package deal" of NLRB nominees for the U.S. Senate to confirm.

That package deal was just approved in Senate Committee on a party line vote.

First up, President Obama wants his three-member NLRB Majority confirmed by the Senate, including:

*** Richard Griffin who is a named defendant in an ongoing Los Angeles union local racketeering case;

*** Mark Pearce who used his position as NLRB Chairman to brazenly defy federal court rulings and kept the NLRB operating "business as usual;"

*** Sharon Block, who was happy to just play along, defying both our Constitution and federal courts -- and like the others, has a long record of pro-forced-unionism bias.

To sweeten the deal, President Obama has also nominated two "Republican" members.

But no matter how pro-Right to Work these two members are, on a five-member Board, they would be powerless to stop anything Obama's RADICALS dream up.

Of course, Presidents retain authority to select the majority of the NLRB appointees. But this is different.

First, President Obama packed the NLRB with unconstitutional recess appointees made while Congress was still in session.

Then, as I already mentioned, when the D.C Circuit Court of Appeals ruled on January 25 that President Obama's recess appointees were UNCONSTITUTIONAL, the NLRB didn't bat an eye.

The shamelessness these Obama NLRB nominees have shown DISQUALIFIES them for office.

The truth is, Obama's NLRB is a politicized, rogue agency and simply MUST be shut down until you and I can realistically hope the Board will operate in a legitimate fashion.

But of course, the union bosses just want all that swept under the rug.

Teamster Czar Jimmy Hoffa stated, "These bipartisan nominees clearly indicate President Obama wants to rise above petty political games."

The Communication Workers of America union bosses issued a statement saying, "It's important the Senate moves quickly."

If they do?

The Senate would be effectively jeopardizing their Constitutional "advice and consent" power for future Presidents to abuse, and the next time, it might not only be NLRB nominees but critical federal court nominees, as well.

But that's not even close to the worst of it!

Should the Senate confirm this "package deal," the union-label NLRB could then simply rubber-stamp every one of the 1,600 outrageous decisions made while the Board was operating unconstitutionally!

Then, any decision made by the U.S. Supreme Court in the upcoming court fight could be rendered virtually meaningless!

Every one of the decisions made by Obama's illegitimate NLRB would be confirmed, including;

>>> The Jeannette Geary case, where the NLRB blatantly IGNORED the Supreme Court's 1988 Beck decision, which states that union bosses cannot force workers in non-Right to Work states to pay for union lobbying or political activities;

>>> "Micro-organizing," which allows union militants to target and organize small units of workers if they know most employees at a workplace don't want to join a union;

>>> Ambush elections, which subject workers to quick-snap organizing where only Big Labor's side of the story is ever told, and exposes workers to many of the abuses of Card Check instant organizing;

>>> Expanded dues check offs, where the NLRB violated 60 years of precedent to force companies to continue automatic collection of forced dues for Big Labor fat cats even after union contracts expire.

The stakes couldn't be higher.

The truth is, President Obama's "package deal" is flat-out UNACCEPTABLE.

And it's absolutely critical you sign your "NO DEAL" petition to Republican Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and your U.S. Senators IMMEDIATELY.

As you'll see, these petitions urge Senator McConnell and your Senators to filibuster and DEMAND a 60-vote threshold for Chairman Mark Pearce, Richard Griffin and Sharon Block.

But unless you and I turn up the pressure on Congress, I'm afraid they do not have the stomach for this fight.

Tantalized by the opportunity to look "bipartisan" for the national media -- while President Obama is waist-deep in scandals -- I'm afraid much of the Senate could quickly cave.

What about those unconstitutional recess appointments? What about these NLRB nominees' brazenness in the face of court rulings?

"We'll leave that to the Supreme Court to work out."

I'm sure I don't have to explain what a disaster this would be.

That's why I'm prepared to launch an immediate all-out nationwide mobilization program.

With your support, my goal is to generate up to one million "No Deals" petitions via mail, email and phones designed to put the Senate on notice just in the next few weeks.

But I can't do it without your help.

So won't you please sign your "No Deals" petition IMMEDIATELY?

Right now -- even with a U.S. Supreme Court fight possibly looming -- President Obama is effectively urging the U.S. Senate to rubber-stamp every outrageous decision the Board has made over these past several months.

Without your immediate action, I'm afraid he could get away with it.

Sincerely,

Mark Mix

P.S. President Obama is brazenly asking the United States Senate to rubber stamp every outrageous decision the union-label NLRB has issued in the last 16 months.

Should the Senate confirm this five-member "package deal," the union-label NLRB could then simply quickly concur with every one of the 1,600 outrageous decisions made while the Board was operating unconstitutionally!
