Congressional Democrats will include the PRO Act in their $3.5 trillion “infrastructure” bill that they can pass without any Republican support through the process of “reconciliation.” Tell your senators to stop the passage of this blatantly unconstitutional and anti-free enterprise bill!
Congressional Democrats are seeking to pass legislation that, in addition to blatantly violating the U.S. Constitution, would entrench the power of l*****t-run labor unions over businesses and workers, including wiping out the states’ various right-to-work laws.
H.R. 842 and S. 420 are titled the “Protecting the Right to Organize Act of 2021,” or PRO Act. They are sponsored by Representative Bobby Scott (D-Va.) and Senator Patty Murray (D-Wash.), respectively. The House bill has 213 co-sponsors while the Senate version has 46 co-sponsors.
The U.S. House of Representatives passed H.R. 842 by a v**e of 225-206 on March 9, 2021. The bill now goes to the U.S. Senate for consideration. Importantly, Senator Joe Manchin, considered a “moderate” or “centrist,” has endorsed the bill’s enactment, something the organization Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) – America’s largest Marxist organization – claimed responsibility for.
Bill Provisions
The PRO Act contains multiple unconstitutional and anti-free enterprise provisions that would entrench already-powerful labor unions. For example, the bill would override state “right-to-work laws, which allow workers to choose whether to join a union. Not only does this violate workers’ freedom of association, but the 10th Amendment prohibits the federal government from overriding state law in this manner.
Additionally, if passed, the PRO Act would allow the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) to override v**es on whether to create a union at a workplace. Even if employees decisively v**e against creating a union, the NLRB could ignore the v**e and create the union anyway.
The PRO Act would redefine the definition of an “independent contractor,” significantly narrowing the term’s definition. This could place tens of millions of independent contractors under the National Labor Relations Act, prohibiting them from working in those jobs without their employers hiring them full-time. Not only is this another unconstitutional federal overreach into the economy, but it could lead to the loss of millions of jobs.
Among other provisions, the PRO Act would make it illegal for employers to permanently replace workers who go on strike, give union bosses power to retaliate against companies that pay their employees based on merit, and reinstate several Obama administration regulations that favored unions. The bill also allows labor unions to encourage i*****l a***ns to join, while House Democrats defeated a motion to prohibit this.
Unconstitutional, G*******t-Harmonization Bill
As already mentioned above, the PRO Act is blatantly unconstitutional, giving the federal government a disturbingly large amount of power over the economy, employers, and workers.
Nowhere does the U.S. Constitution give the federal government any authority to regulate employers, workers, or any other portion of the economy. Nor does it have the authority to override state laws on these matters. The 10th Amendment guarantees that the states and the people have authority over these matters.
This unconstitutional usurpation has actually existed since the enactment of the 1935 National Labor Relations Act, which “gave” the federal government the powers that the PRO Act would now apply. In addition to stopping the PRO Act’s enactment, Congress should repeal the 1935 law.
The PRO Act is also connected to the campaign to destroy U.S. sovereignty through an international mergers. For example, Article 23.3 of the United States–Mexico–Canada Agreement (USMCA) requires member countries to recognize collective bargaining, something that could outlaw right-to-work laws if fully enforced. The PRO Act would, thus, be a way to comply with the international trade agreement.
Not only has Congress previously changed domestic laws due to international agreements, but Mexico enacted a major collective bargaining bill to comply with the USMCA. This threat to U.S. sovereignty is not merely hypothetical. If passed, the PRO Act would be a major step in harmonizing U.S. labor laws with those of Mexico and Canada – neither of which have right-to-work laws.
Urge your U.S. senators to oppose the unconstitutional PRO Act and to repeal the underlying 1935 National Labor Relations Act. Instead, tell them to only support legislation that upholds the U.S. Constitution.

My concern is we are not fighting back, we just complain. The forensic b****t thing in Arizona is now finished, but the dems have it all locked up so no one can see how they stole it.
I wager our founding fathers if present here today would have then swinging from an oak tree by now.
But we just watch and hope.

Amen! We are lying down while our country has been stolen out from under us.
