Democratic Sen. Dick Durbin argued that illegal immigrants can join unions, and suggested that a 2008 decision by Judge Brett Kavanaugh shows he is hostile to “immigrants.”
Kavanaugh countered by arguing that his 2008 dissent complied with the Supreme Court’s Sure-Tan decision in 1984.
In the 2008 case, two other judges outvoted Kavanaugh and said the 1984 Sure-Tan decision allowed illegal migrants to join unions.

Why would someone join a union if they are 1) in the country illegally - and therefore 2) not allowed to work?
Durbin is shameful.
Durbin should have stayed in the slaughterhouse. It’s more honest work than he is doing on Congress.
Watching these lightweights like Durbin trying to debate the law with Kavanaugh is like watching a kindergartener trying to debate physics with Einstein. K is so far above them intellectually that they embarrass themselves just by opening their mouths.
I’ll say it again: The most ridiculous, invalid cherry-picking you will ever see in your life, inside or outside of government, takes place in these judicial confirmation hearings.
Dim-witted Senators who couldn’t tell you the difference between a search and a seizure find a decision that goes against their narrative, and that’s all they need to hear. Unfit! Against women! Against Blacks! Gays! Abortion! Transgenders!
per the article:
Kavenaugh: Applying the Sure-Tan analysis, I would hold that an illegal immigrant worker is not an “employee” under the NLRA for the simple reason that, ever since 1986, an illegal immigrant worker is not a lawful “employee” in the United States.
Turban Durbin: but muh illegal immigrants
Well of course he is, he's from the most corrupt state in the country, Illinois! (And I say that as a resident of this shithole of a state!)
I love Durbin.
He always exposes democrats as morons and a-holes.
The notion that illegals can form unions is basically an admission to the belief that there are no borders nor rule of law. I wonder if Durbin even realizes that or not.
Durbin needs to go back to work in the slaughter house. Better suits his skills.
Using the Durban logic, he should have to primary against an illegal alien.
Sure they can form unions, but not in this country. Return to their country of origin, and form a union, and try to reform their corrupt government and economy. Good luck.
just in head line and bit of artild 2 differences:
Form union vs join a union
Please note that the quote regarding “I would hold...” by Kavenaugh was from his dissent - not his testimony yesterday per the article.
Had me quite concerned as suggesting that his testimony in response to Durbin would suggest how he would decide a new case is clearly outside how he should (and did) comment.
Yeah... I can go along with that... But, I DO kind'a like the girls.... Worst mistake we ever made was giving them the right to vote.... :)
Is Durbin still talking about the frozen trucker??
