House Democrats must listen to Gov. Bill Ritter

Kudos to Colorado’s Democratic Gov. Bill Ritter, who last week stopped a bad bill dead in its tracks. The bill would have repealed a Colorado law requiring that, once a company’s employees approve a union, they have a second, secret-ballot vote on how dues will be assessed, with a 75-percent supermajority required for approval. Colorado labor leaders exulted when Democrats in the state legislature rammed the bill through despite protests from the business community. Ritter’s veto put a stop to the bum’s rush being given to the 92 percent of Colorado workers who aren’t members of unions.
