SEN HARRY REID WANTS TO IGNORE VETTING - "JUST APPROVE ANYONE OBAMA WANTS"

Dear Conservatives,

What a miserable excuse for a vetting process.

It usually takes the IRS, FBI, and Office of Government Ethics months to complete background checks on nominees to powerful agencies.

Not only that, Senate HELP Committee rules require a minimum of five days to review the paperwork before holding hearings.

But Senate Democrats are planning to just skip all that in their mad rush to stack the NLRB with two more Obama radicals who seem bound and determined to force independent workers under Big Labor's thumb.

And Ranking Republican Lamar Alexander has reportedly decided to just stand aside and let them get away with it.


After quickie hearings today, union-label Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid could force the nominations through the full Senate barely a week after Barack Obama, according to news reports, let AFL-CIO union boss Richard Trumka pick the nominations.

That's why it's vital you act at once.

Call your U.S. Senators – and Ranking Republican Lamar Alexander – and insist they fight this sham quick-snap process.

Urge them to oppose the confirmations of Nancy Schiffer and Kent Hirozawa, and to vote against cutting off debate until there has AT LEAST been a comprehensive, public vetting process with enough time for the American people to evaluate the nominees.

Sen. Dean Heller: (202) 224-6244

Sen. Harry Reid: (202) 224-3542

Senator Lamar Alexander: (202) 224-4944

There's not a moment to lose. Please call right away.

Sincerely,

Greg Mourad
Vice President of Legislation
