SEIU’s Andy Stern, Retire in Peace
All politically/financially/culturally destructive things must end, and so it is that the chief of the Service Employee International Union (SEIU), Andy Stern, will be stepping down soon. Ostensibly, it’s because he helped shepherd comprehensive health care “reform” into law, one of his key legislative goals. But as the New York Times points out, he didn’t achieve passage of the Employee Free Choice Act (aka “card check”), which eliminates the secret ballot in unionization elections. Hard to believe that after 14 years at the helm, Captain Ahab Stern is jumping ship before landing the biggest prize for organized labor. Could it be he’s being groomed for bigger things than a radical, labor version of a community organizer?
