Richmond, Va. (February 25, 2002)<\/b> \u2014 On Tuesday, February 26, the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit hears arguments challenging a National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) ruling that gives unions the right to force non-union employees across America to wear union badges on their uniforms as a condition of employment. National Right to Work Foundation attorneys brought the appeal for BellSouth Communications technicians Gary Lee and James Amburn of Charlotte, North Carolina, who were ordered to wear a Communications Workers of America (CWA) union logo patch in order to keep their jobs. \u201cNo worker should be forced to be a walking billboard for a union he or she doesn\u2019t support,\u201d said Stefan Gleason<\/a>, Vice President of the National Right to Work Foundation. \u201cThis case shows the extreme bias of the NLRB in favor of union coercion and against employee free speech.\u201d In 1997, the NLRB\u2019s General Counsel issued a complaint against the CWA and BellSouth for unfair labor practices. The complaint agreed with Foundation attorneys\u2019 arguments that forcing non-members to wear the CWA union logo violates their right to refrain from union activity, and that the logo gave the false appearance that non-members belonged to or supported the union. (The employees exercised their right not to join the union under North Carolina\u2019s highly popular Right to Work law.) However, in a decision filled with tortured legal reasoning, late last year the NLRB in Washington, DC, ruled that BellSouth\u2019s uniform policy requiring the patch was a \u201cspecial circumstance,\u201d which trumped the statutory right of workers to refrain from supporting the union.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
