So unions can contact them before an election to decided those workers even wants -- you.
North Dakota Republican senator John Harmon says.
It's.
It's where this whole thing -- talent.
What's weird about this leaving -- Idaho civil libertarian.
I don't think so aspects of this.
Who -- their right mind could allow this to happen I mean that is a huge invasion of crisis.
-- don't -- this raises real concerns I mean not only a private privacy issue which you just mentioned and that's right on.
But again more rules more regulations on the small businesses of our country when we want them to invest and hire people this is going the wrong directly.
How would they do it senator they're saying there's they did you know.
They had have to give this information on the -- becomes then we want all the email addresses -- you could use that for ending the number of nefarious means right to go after the people you ticket trying to stop unions.
To show up -- their houses to just slam them with god knows what kind of you know.
You know.
-- exactly it's not only a personal privacy issue.
Again it's putting a bigger regulatory burden on small business.
At a time when our our economy -- you know we need to get people hired are we need to get this economy going so.
This is the wrong way to go -- and further mark.
The appointments themselves are not constitutional so that calls into question any thing that the NLRB advances right now.
That's why we're working to -- we can do to not only.
Walk that back.
But prevent these rules and regulations from going into effect which would hurt small business in this in this country and cause more unemployment.
Reduce the number of jobs to -- what -- Senator if this did become.
-- we're against but companies were forces is in our view says they have to do it -- a CEO says not one not going to replace.
Well obviously -- that company could be subject to litigation.
Again providing uncertainty.
Making it more difficult to do business when we need to do just the opposite we need to -- certainly.
We need less regulatory burden not more we need to help businesses lower their cost so they can invest and hire people get our economy going.
And get our thirteen plus million people who are unemployed.
Back to work you know this has got to be liberals faustian choice you -- to push unions but it's you've.
From graciously guard.
Civil liberties right so you don't want to -- right I mean aren't gonna give up my information but I love unions -- matters shoot myself.
Pretty tough situation for small businessman again that's why we're working in congress to try to create a better business climate to get the economy going.
This is making it really tough for small business to do business.
That is not what we wanna do thank you very much -- again.
