SEIU, the "union" that shares office space with ACORN in several cities has once again been accused of corruption and fraud.
No not by Rush, Sean or Glenn. No, this time by another union.
"Now these upstarts charge that the UHW (SEIU) threatened workers with deportation and tampered with secret ballots to narrowly win a pivotal election last summer in Fresno, Calif. The NUHW allegations, contained in a complaint filed last Friday and previously not made public, take the battle to a new level."
How corrupt was the vote? "But now, Carlos Martinez, an immigrant from El Salvador who was on the SEIU's staff during the campaign, has come forward so he says to blow the whistle on his employer. Mr. Martinez went door-to-door canvassing the home-care workers during the 15-day election. Like him, many of them are native Spanish speakers; some are illiterate.
Speaking in an interview over a sandwich at a hotel in the Bay Area late last month, Mr. Martinez says he was instructed by superiors to tell the workers that if they voted against the SEIU, they could lose their medical benefits, see their green cards or citizenship revoked and possibly be deported. He says he and other staffers were also told to pressure voters to spoil ballots that had been filled out for the NUHW. In other instances he filled ballots out for them. He says he even took some to the post office, as did other SEIU campaign workers."
Yet the US Attorney General REFUSES to investigate. The corrupt Labor Secretary (she is owned by the SEIU) refuses to take away the certification of the SEIU. The good news is that both unions are corrupt, so corruption was going to win anyway.. The bad news is that the illegal aliens (both unions have sections that promote membership by illegal aliens) and honest citizens who want to work are forced to work for openly corrupt unions.
