Union Boss Richard Trumka Threatens Democrats!!!

Union Boss Richard Trumka

Union boss Richard Trumka recently threatened to withhold big union $$$$$$$ from Democrats unless they bow to the alter of big labor unions.

Davis-Bacon Prevailing Wage Determinations Seriously Flawed

Davis-Bacon Prevailing Wage Determinations Should Be Calculated Fairly

However, the WHD uses a survey methodology that is fundamentally flawed, which means that Davis- Bacon rates often bear no relation to market wages.

Many States have adopted their own Davis-Bacon Laws commonly called Baby-Bacons, the majority of which suffer the same unfair and flawed wage determination methodology that plaques the Federal Law. Read Analysis
