Of course the GOP Senators are working to kill pro-worker legislation

Harry Reid announced that the Senate will be taking up the Employee Free Choice Act later this week:
.............

Treating American workers with dignity, respect and fairness -- can't have that say the Republicans Senators. So, true to form, GOP Senators, who have become the obstructionist caucus, are planning to block the bill. They just filibuster every piece of progressive legislation:

Despite a pitched lobbying battle between business and labor heavyweights, Senate Republicans are largely closing ranks against a Democratic union-organizing bill, using the measure to project unity after their party has been weakened by tense debates on immigration and energy.

As Democratic leaders and presidential hopefuls flocked to labor rallies yesterday to promote the union-organizing bill, which is slated for a vote early next week, the GOP embraced the standoff. Centrist Republicans who are reeling from grassroots pressure on the immigration bill and the war in Iraq appeared unfazed by the top-dollar campaign to win their votes for the union legislation.

Great. Show unity by beating up on working men and women. That's so Republican.

hate labor and the common man. Do the Repubs really think they have enough well heeled to over vote the common man? Smells like sucicide to me.
