Bernie Sanders campaign hit with unfair labor practices federal complaint

American Thinker:

According to a complaint to the National Labor Relations Board filed July 19, the Bernie Sanders campaign is behaving like a ruthless anti-union corporation of labor history lore.  Bloomberg reports:

Sen. Bernie Sanders’ (I-Vt.) 2020 presidential campaign has been hit with an unfair labor practice complaint alleging illegal employee interrogation and retaliation against staffers.

The July 19 complaint to the National Labor Relations Board, filed by an unnamed individual in Indiana, was posted to the agency’s website late July 22. It comes as tense negotiations between the Sanders campaign and the union representing staffers recently boiled over publicly. The Washington Post reported July 23 that unionized organizers for the campaign had won a pay raise and reached a compromise to reduce the hours of some workers.

A copy of the charge has not yet been made public, but the agency’s July 22 docket lists five potential violations of the National Labor Relations Act. The charge also alleges that the campaign unlawfully discharged an employee, modified a labor contract, and engaged in illegal discipline.

  1. I so enjoy the past posts being about two dorfbags that have no chance in hell of becoming the democrat nominee.
    We can point fingers and laugh at them in the comfort that their fringe bullshit is simply masturbation material for the MSM.

  2. Bernie is self destructing with a vigor I didn’t think the mutt still had in him.
    I hope he’s wounded but not fatally, we still need the old crackpot as the face of the party.

  3. They’re not actually trying to be the democrat nom.

    It’s all a money laundering scheme to get around campaign finance laws.

    When they ‘drop out’ they ‘donate’ their funds to the front runner.

    And it’s all ‘legal’. If you’re a democrat…

  4. Not surprisingly the press here in Vermont is pretty quiet about this. We learned that our single Congress critter is on the Impeach team, four employees at a fast food joint were fired for having a food fight and a memorial in Arkansas about a 1919 black massacre was unveiled but not a negative whisper about our (Communist) socialist Senator.

  5. Bernie: Goddamned ingrates. They all want to have 3 homes, like I do. They should be proud of their class status as workers. Look at them! The unwashed unwanted young people who think that if I pay them more they’’ll become members of my class.
