One of the most noticable things in the fight against the Employee Free Choice Act is the willingness of the Big Business community and those on the right who are anti-American workers’ rights to deploy The Big Lie, namely, that Employee Free Choice ends the secret ballot. This is not a talking point, it is a lie. Fortunately today the Wall Street Journal editorial board (of all places) puts that lie to bed:

“The bill doesn’t remove the secret-ballot option from the National Labor Relations Act”

Thanks WSJ! Now hopefully all the wingnuts who have been trumpeting this lie will stop lying to the public and have a debate on the merits of the case. Should employers control when and how a union is formed? Or should working Americans get to decide when and how they will form a union?
