Antifar posted... But Gov. Janet Mills vetoed the proposal Friday with a message that said she could not subject our farmers to a complicated new set of laws that would require them to hire lawyers just to understand.Jesus fuck "Our poor podunk country folk are just too dumb.

Absurd wording. The right to unionize isn't something you simply grant with a law. It's immutable that a man is entitled to the sweat of his brow. --- https://i.imgur.com/u5kY6Yt.gif https://i.imgur.com/V6HBhkR.png ... Copied to Clipboard!

[LFAQs-redacted-quote] Lol? This is 100% in line with the Democratic party. They don't want workers unionizing any more than Republicans do. That's why we need a progressive party to actually get some traction. --- No more shall man have wings to bear him to paradise. Henceforth, he shall walk. ... Copied to Clipboard!

The New Deal straight-up omitted farm workers https://documentedny.com/2021/10/13/12-workers-make-history-forming-new-yorks-first-farmworkers-union/ The fight to unionize farmworkers who are often excluded from labor laws that apply to other workers goes back to the National Labor Relations Act of 1935, signed into law by President Franklin Roosevelt. This law, also called the Wagner Act, allowed workers to unionize and prevented employers from retaliating against workers who joined a union with the exception of agricultural or domestic workers. At the time, many of these workers were Black and Roosevelt had compromised on the law with the Southern Democrats, who wanted to continue discriminating against and oppressing people of color. --- https://i.imgur.com/bbRWLI8.gif https://i.imgur.com/A0BErSV.jpg https://i.imgur.com/S1m3po4.jpg https://i.imgur.com/7fCcfko.jpg ...

Questionmarktarius posted... This. You don't need permission to start a trade union.I'm guessing that there is something in the state's legal code that prevents farm worker's from unionizing, which I agree, is bullshit. EDIT NVM the above post explains it. Fuck southern lobbyists and fuck Roosevelt and the rest of the government for giving in to them. --- "If you wish to converse with me define your terms" Voltaire ... Copied to Clipboard!

Admittedly it sounds like the provision would actually be challengeable under violations of both the 1st and 14th Amendments, but of course no one has actually done it yet (still!) and there's no way this Supreme Court overturns it. --- https://i.imgur.com/bbRWLI8.gif https://i.imgur.com/A0BErSV.jpg https://i.imgur.com/S1m3po4.jpg https://i.imgur.com/7fCcfko.jpg ...

So upon further consideration, this directly stems from southern desire to keep fucking over black people, who made up the majority of it's farm laborers in the south and they were willing to fuck over farm workers in the entire country to do it. --- "If you wish to converse with me define your terms" Voltaire ...

Pretty much every gun regulation in American history was targeted to make things difficult for black people to own guns and while it affects white people to some degree the main point was that they get to fuck over black people. --- It says right here in Matthew 16:4 "Jesus doth not need a giant Mecha." https://i.imgur.com/dQgC4kv.jpg ...
