He, President elect Obama, just does not support it....he is adamantly for it and I was under the impression that he sponsored the bill !!!
In any case, another link and some quotes from the link...
"We're ready to play offense for organized labor. It's time we had a president who didn't choke saying the word 'union.' A president who strengthens our unions by letting them do what they do best: organize our workers," Mr. Obama told the AFL-CIO in Philadelphia on April 2.
"I will make it the law of the land when I'm president of the United States," Mr. Obama told the labor federation.
The bill is "a poorly-disguised attempt by the labor unions to swell their ranks at the expense of workers' rights and employers.
