Associated Builders and Contractors: Don’t Count Your Card Check Chickens

As Associated Builders and Contractors has been warning its members and allies in the fight against the anti-democratic, anti-jobs legislation laughingly known as the Employee Free Choice Act, the fight is not over. Despite some setbacks for organized labor’s lobbying machine, the fight is still on. ABC’s Geoff Burr took that message to readers of Investors Business Daily, which reports:

Others on the anti-card-check side, like Geoff Burr, a lobbyist with Associated Builders and Contractors, aren’t so sure that it won’t come up later this year. Labor may want a vote to see which lawmakers it needs to focus on.

“Even if it fails on the floor by one or two votes, it is something labor can use to try to motivate their forces for 2010,” Burr said.
