In the Chicago Tribune, Mary Halm writes:

Eliminating the voice of the employer, and the employee in some circumstances, seems like an odd way to go about giving workers a direct path to form unions. Toughening penalties against employers who break the law sounds fair, except the bill would not toughen penalties against unions that break the law. And, binding arbitration – which would essentially put business decisions in the hands of a government bureaucrat – would eliminate jobs and drive up the cost of doing business in Illinois and the rest of the country.

Small business owners are the engine of America, not the government, and definitely not the unions. It seems to me this bill should not only be “compromised;” it should be killed.
