House passes anti-worker bill

Congressional Insider - A House bill sold as “pro-worker” could let Washington bureaucrats write private labor contracts over the heads of both workers and employers.

• The House passed the Faster Labor Contracts Act, forcing strict timelines and binding arbitration onto first union contracts.
• Critics say it hands unelected government arbitrators power to dictate pay, benefits, and workplace rules for up to two years.
• Supporters claim it stops employers from dragging out talks, but opponents warn it actually strips workers of a real vote on contracts.
• Over 350 groups, including many conservative and business organizations, are urging the Senate to kill the bill as federal overreach.
