Following up on the internal power struggle [1] within the SEIU union, the gnashing of teeth [2] continues. Today's San Francisco Chronicle says [3] that a new letter from SEIU chief Andy Stern accuses his lead critic Sal Rosseli of misconduct. The article cites Rosseli and others:

"...said the allegations appear to be a prelude to a trusteeship, under which Stern would replace the union's elected leaders with his own appointees."

Sounds like quite the consolidation of power. Stern is a leading proponent of pouring massive amounts of forced union dues into coercive "card check" union organizing [4], and the outcome of this power struggle could have serious implications for American workers victimized by such campaigns.

If you haven't already, be sure to take a look at this video [5] detailing the coercion inherent in union "card check" campaigns, and how the National Right to Work Foundation is helping employees fight back.
