Mitt Romney on labor’s “Card Check” legislation

“The unions have helped Barack Obama. They will hope to be paid back. I’m particularly concerned that organized labor would call on Barack Obama to pass the card check program. This removes from American workers the right to the secret ballot in deciding whether or not to accept a union. This legislation would do more to harm America’s long-term competitiveness than almost anything I can imagine. It would be a partisan payback for organized labor but it would come with devastating consequences for the nation.”

- Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney to Fortune Magazine, November 7, 2008
