Project 2025: Eliminate Unions
Posted On: Jul 24, 2024
July 24, 2024 |COMMENTARY| […] In “Project 2025: Presidential Transition Project,” the Heritage Foundation unveiled its 900-page wish list for a new Trump presidency and a compliant Supreme Court. Trump’s victory last time was a surprise, and many corporate types view his chaotic term as a missed opportunity. This time Heritage, which is a mouthpiece for big employers, has compiled a long list of people they want Trump to hire and appoint, and a scorched-earth plan for his first 180 days. Day 1 they want to fire the best National Labor Relations Board general counsel we’ve had in my lifetime, Jennifer Abruzzo…. From there, the plan is to bulldoze the protections U.S. workers have built up over 100 years of determination, sacrifice, and unity. It’s ugly: abolish overtime pay laws, outlaw public sector unions entirely, get rid of health and safety protections, eliminate the federal minimum wage by letting states set their own, make it harder to receive unemployment, put children back to work like in the 1920s. Labor Notes ~Related: The AFL-CIO created Project 2025 and Unions to help workers navigate the plan’s anti-worker agenda.
