Whereas:
Thomas Perez's confirmation will continue the pro-Big Labor bent at Barack Obama's Department of Labor, which has gutted union disclosure standards to keep workers in the dark about how union bosses spend their forced dues;
and
Whereas:
The nominee's record demonstrates a willingness to use his positions of power to promote the agenda of Big Labor at the expense of hard-working Americans; and
Whereas:
Perez derided the work ethic and skills of the over 93 percent of private-sector workers who are not union members when he commented that unionized workers "would be more productive, more motivated and more loyal" than non-union workers; and
Whereas:
Opposing Thomas Perez's nomination would send a strong message to President Obama against expanding forced unionism at a time when Americans want jobs, not more sweetheart deals and special privileges for Obama's Big Labor benefactors;
Therefore: I urge you to oppose the nomination of Thomas Perez as Labor Secretary.
