Republican Party Pence on labor and employment

  • In 2011, Mike Pence voted for H.R.3094 - the Workforce Democracy and Fairness Act, which proposed amending "the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA) to revise requirements for determination by the National Labor Relation Board (NLRB) of an appropriate bargaining unit before an election of collective bargaining representation."[1]
  • Pence voted against H.R.800 - the Employee Free Choice Act of 2007, which proposed amending "the National Labor Relations Act to require the National Labor Relations Board to certify a bargaining representative without directing an election if a majority of the bargaining unit employees have authorized designation of the representative (card-check) and there is no other individual or labor organization currently certified or recognized as the exclusive representative of any of the employees in the unit."[2]
