Project Labor Agreement: If you hire union workers, union workers won’t commit acts of vandalism, sabotage and assault which would slow down the progress of the job.

BIG government labor will destroy business in this country. Everything is going to go out of the country. I am waiting for the assault on WalMart to unionize it. That will be their first huge attack when the unionizing of all comes around.

This will make all federal projects cost more as all contractors must use “prevailing wages” (ie union wages) for workers.

No longer can a non-union company have an advantage over a unionized company when bidding on a federal project.

What then, is the force or effect of the Davis-Bacon Act?

So, non-union labor is not really labor. I see. They don't deserve the work as much as union labor.

Now we can have Big Digs all over the country. Add in the cost overruns, and a $Trillion looks like chicken feed.

Forgive my multiple posts on this page, but I can't sit still.

From the xord:
Construction employers typically do not have a permanent workforce, which makes it difficult for them to predict labor costs when bidding on contracts and to ensure a steady supply of labor on contracts being performed.
False.

Challenges also arise due to the fact that construction projects typically involve multiple employers at a single location.
Misleading - while there may be multiple employers there should be a single GC responsible for the contract and therefore for all of their sub-contractors. Additionally, there should be a CM from the agency overseeing the project.

And the crux of the matter is identified in Section 3(c):
contain guarantees against strikes, lockouts, and similar job disruptions;
The Unions have spoken - within 6 months large scale projects will be rolling across the country - the Democrat in the WH got word that his work projects were going to come to a grinding halt unless he guaranteed organized labor, wich spent MILLIONS on his election, their 'fair' share.

.

If I were a millionaire (which I clearly am not) I would file suit today in federal claiming a conflict of interest - asking as relief either recension of this order or that he be required to return all of the contributions made by or bundled through labor organizations.

This is another form of intimidation. The Dem's way of saying only those who play nice with unions will receive contracts and only those under the thumb of the unions will participate in the 2-4 million jobs offered by the stimulus (pork)package.

I would not be so bad if the Democrats would just come out and say we are Socialist and proud. But instead they do this back room crap. At some point there is going to be hell to pay for this kind of distasteful executive orders.

One thing the Pelosi and her kind in the government should keep in mind is the following:

“Texas is a free and independent State ... All political power is inherent in the people ... they have at all times the inalienable right to alter their government in such manner as they might think proper.”
