Benigno 'Noynoy' Aquino for the next Philippine President

An administration that shall not enter into any compromises with Gloria Macapagal Arroyo (GMA), her family and her cronies. A government that shall commit to reverse the political and economic damages wrought by the Arroyo administration. A political leadership that shall use its authority and shall exercise political will to introduce basic reforms that would restore our faith in our own capacity to lead decent and honorable lives.

Voting No on the Minneapolis Board of Estimate Referendum

Voting No on the Minneapolis Board of Estimate Referendum [Note this piece may be edited later --TCIMC editors]

An important referendum--Charter Amendment 168--will be on the Minneapolis ballot in the November 3rd election.  It proposes to amend the city charter by replacing the current members of the Board of Estimate and Taxation with city council members.  I’m urging citizens to vote “No” on this amendment.

Who Is Concerned With the Majority?

<p>Every election is about the majority of voters deciding which candidate speaks most closely to their concerns.  The last couple of election cycles have been about more than people choosing between the lesser of two evils or apathetic voting.  There was a genuine feeling of anger underlying the voting and there should have been.  People came out in record numbers to demand government once again spoke for the people who put them in office.</p>

What's the Real Secret that big-business special interest groups don't want you to know about the EFCA?

The Employee Free Choice Act does not eliminate the secret ballot.

Greedy CEOs and their front groups have pushed a deceptive campaign about the Employee Free Choice Act. The latest ad campaign exposes the lies and distortions they have been spreading over the secret ballot.

Contrary to their assertions, the Employee Free Choice Act does not take away the secret ballot in union elections. It simply gives workers, not their bosses, the right to choose how to form a union so they can earn better wages, health care, and a secure retirement.

Reid: Vote on Employee Free Choice Act card check bill, a labor priority, likely in summer

Washington — Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said the Senate will likely turn its attention this summer to the Employee Free Choice Act — the union organizing bill being watched in Las Vegas and across the nation.

Standing beside fair-pay advocate Lilly Ledbetter late last week after the Senate passed landmark legislation named in her honor, Reid made clear that the wage discrimination bill was not the last on the labor agenda.
