The Left is Starting to Notice

Firedoglake has a great post today about the Center for Union Lies and card check/neutrality v. NLRB elections. Check it out. In the comments, Jane Hamsher calls it one of the best posts FDL has ever had. Pretty high praise. And the other comments are pretty gratifying as well. Mainly, its great to see folks perking up about organizing issues and the labor movement.

4.11 Days

The Change to Win Make Work Pay website has a cool calculator that shows how long it takes the average CEO of an American corporation to make your pay. The title is the length of time it takes to make mine. It takes 13.95 seconds for the average CEO to make minimum wage ($5.15).

In other news, the NLRB has invited amicus briefing on a neutrality/card check agreement case now pending. I will try to find out more and post links to amicus briefs if I can find them.
