Card Check An Issue In PA Senate Race

Wednesday, April 7th, 2010 by Admin

Pat Toomey, who has been endorsed by Associated Builders and Contractors for his run at the Senate seat currently held by Sen. Arlen Specter, is making card check an issue in his campaign.

In a profile of Toomey, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette makes note of these important positions:

“(The Democrats) both supported all the bailouts of the failing banks and car companies. They both supported government takeover of health care, they both supported cap and trade, which would be devastating for our economy, they both supported card check, which would deny workers a secret ballot,” Mr. Toomey said.

Cap and trade and card check are both terrible policies in that both will kill the one thing our economy most desperately needs for a recovery: jobs.

It’s also a positive sign that both are fairly unpopular, which once again reminds us that sometimes good policy and good politics can go hand-in-hand.
