The EFCA Fight Heats Up--In a Minnesota Courtroom
Article Prepared by Darren Rumack and Brian Caufield
The Minnesota Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party has filed complaints with the Minnesota Office of Administrative Hearings against two groups who oppose the EFCA, alleging that they made false advertising statements regarding Minnesota Senatorial candidate Al Franken, who supports the EFCA.
The complaint challenges print ads stating that Franken supports the elimination of secret ballot votes for workers, and wants to end worker privacy. Of course, while Franken might not have come out and said that, the EFCA would do just that, by authorizing card check recognition, and doing away with secret ballot elections.
As election season gets into full gear with the party conventions rapidly approaching, expect to hear more about the EFCA in the near future.
