Elaine Chao's Dirtiest Deeds
Posted by Dave Email on 03/06/08 at 11:19:48 am

American Rights at Work is running a great poll: Vote for [Secretary of Labor] Elaine Chao's Dirtiest Deeds. Chao has developed a well-deserved reputation of being incredibly harmful to the rights of workers in the United States.

Here are the three that I chose:

  1. Overtime: Supported policies that would cut 8 million workers' overtime pay.
  2. Against Workers' Rights: Actively campaigned against the Employee Free Choice Act – bipartisan legislation that restores the rights of workers to freely and fairly form unions.
  3. Safety: Refused to enforce rules requiring employers to pay for safety gear – contributing to 400,000 workers injured and 50 dead.
