"Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.) praised then-President Reagan's firing of thousands of striking federal workers when asked Monday about the ongoing United Auto Workers strike. "I think Ronald Reagan gave us a great example when federal employees decided they were going to strike," Scott said Monday in Iowa during a campaign event. "He said, you strike, you're fired. Simple concept to me to the extent that we can use that once again."
Federal law, according to the National Labor Relations Board, prohibits workers from being fired for "participating in a protected strike or picketing against" one's employer, though not all strikes are protected. Scott's campaign said his comments dealt entirely with federal workers rather than the UAW strike. The UAW comprises non-federal workers. Biden last Friday urged U.S. automakers to share more of their "record profits" with striking union workers - Scott criticized President Biden, who has dubbed himself as the "most pro-union president ever." The percentage of American workers who are members of a union fell to a new low in 2022 despite the total number of unionized workers increasing. 71% of Americans approved of labor unions in 2022, the highest mark recorded by Gallup since 1965."
It was smart for Scott to bring up the firing of federal workers when asked about striking union workers, because it is always fun to fire federal employees because they aren't real people anyway with real jobs - and if you get any blowback for implying we should fire non-federal union workers; just run the "Oh, we were just talking about federal workers" defense -- even tho the question asked was about non-federal employees.
I think it is a winning policy to be anti-union, because for the most part, unions are bad news; they have far too much power - just look at what they have done in the last few decades; forced corporations to pay them overtime; forced them to give them vacation and sick leave, subsidize their medical insurance, it's just insane....
Over the years, conditions have been very unfair to the corporate/wealth class ; so this recent power grab by the unions will backfire as most people will view the unions as being pro-Democrat, pro woke (especially since the largest portion of union membership are black workers) - all of these things make unions even less popular and the corporate elite more popular. So Tim Scott and the GOP really needs to do whatever they can to make it easier to fire these strikers both in Detroit and Hollywood.
Not to mention PATCO, as well as all other Federal unions are covered under the Hatch Act. New York State public sector/public transit unions are further covered under NY's Taylor Law. For example, if a strike against the Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority (ATU Local 1342) were to commence, the Union Boss goes to jail.PATCO had a non-strike agreement in their employment contracts. They knowingly violated it, Reagan gave them a warning and chance to return to work, they refused. So he fired them and replaced them. As far as I am concerned ALL government workers should have the same wording in their employment contracts. They are public servants, their jobs are to serve the public, In return they get far better benefits and job security than civilian workers. Used to, government jobs paid less than civilian ones, but offered better security. Now they pay better, have better security and far better benefits,
all govt workers do as far as i know....i know we couldnt strike in the PO....PATCO had a non-strike agreement in their employment contracts.
