Harry Reid is trying to pull a fast one, and I need your help to stop it.
You see, the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee is meeting tomorrow on Barack Obama's new National Labor Relations Board nominees.
That's less than a week after Obama let top AFL-CIO union boss Richard Trumka pick the new nominees, both longtime pro-forced unionism radicals.
Even more troubling, some Senate Republicans appear to be going along with the rush job by agreeing to expedite the hearings and bypass the required background checks.
That's why it's vital you act at once.
Please, call your U.S. Senators right away, and urge them to fight Harry Reid's scheme to railroad Nancy Schiffer and Kent Hirozawa through the Senate without proper vetting.
You can reach your U.S. Senators at the phone numbers below:
Sen. Dean Heller: (202) 224-6244
Sen. Harry Reid: (202) 224-3542
In addition to contacting your Senators, please give the members of the Senate HELP Committee a piece of your mind.
It's particularly crucial you call the three Republicans on the HELP Committee who worked with John McCain and Harry Reid last week to confirm controversial Labor Secretary nominee Tom Perez.
HELP Committee members Lisa Murkowski (AK), Mark Kirk (IL), and Lamar Alexander (TN) all voted to cut off debate on Perez, and I'm afraid they can't be counted on.
As the Ranking Republican Member of the HELP Committee, Senator Alexander is in a unique position to ensure that the nominees are properly vetted.
But sources say Senator Alexander might waive the background check requirements, paving the way for Obama's nominees to be rammed through the Senate in no time.
So please, call Senators Alexander, Murkowski, and Kirk at once.
Senator Lamar Alexander: (202) 224-4944
Senator Lisa Murkowski: (202) 224-6665
Senator Mark Kirk: (202) 224-2854
Tell them that at a minimum, Barack Obama's NRLB nominees Nancy Schiffer and Kent Hirozawa need to undergo the standard background check and vetting process.
You and I must find a way to AT LEAST let the American people have a chance to properly examine the two union lawyers that Richard Trumka chose for the NLRB.
After the McCain/Alexander surrender to Harry Reid last week, I'm afraid we're stretching our budget thin to fight back against this latest rush job.
So after calling the Senate, please consider chipping in with a contribution of $10 or more to support the National Right to Work Committee in this uphill struggle.
But most importantly, please act at once.
Sincerely,
Mark Mix
P.S. It's critical you call both your U.S. Senators IMMEDIATELY and urge them to fight Harry Reid's scheme to railroad Nancy Schiffer and Kent Hirozawa through the Senate without proper vetting.
And while you're at it, call Senate HELP Committee Ranking Republican Lamar Alexander and insist he NOT waive the standard background check requirement at tomorrow's hearing.
Sen. Dean Heller: (202) 224-6244
Sen. Harry Reid: (202) 224-3542
Senator Lamar Alexander: (202) 224-4944
