It's not paycheck protection; it's anti-union, anti-worker bill

There should be a law that bills have to have accurate titles.

A case in point is the so-called Paycheck Protection Bill, SB 29. It would be more accurately described as a big business protection act, designed to totally eradicate unions. There has been no outcry for this from workers, the people that the bill's sponsor, Sen. Dan Brown, R-Rolla, says he is protecting. In fact, it is the late thing that anyone who would be affected by this bill wants.

Naturally, the Missouri Chamber of Commerce supports the bill. This video, taken during the House Workforce Developement and Workplace Safety Committee hearing Wednesday, was posted by the Chamber.
