Bush to express their views on repealing the anti-labor Taft-Hartley Act. Nader has urged the repeal of the 53-year old Taft-Hartley Act as a major initiative of his campaign. He asked Gore and Bush: =93Do you support the repeal of the Taft-Hartley Act? If you do not favor outright repeal, are there any provisions of the Act which you would recommend for repeal?=94 =93I want to emphasize the critical need to repeal the Taft-Hartley Act which remains on the books as a disgraceful monument to the power and anti-labor antagonism of corporations in the United States,=94 Nader wrote the Democratic and Republican candidates. =93No candidate for President should be allowed to escape a clear statement of where they stand for or against repeal of the Act - this is something that should not be hidden behind vague statements in party platforms.=94 http://www.greens.org - Globalize democracy. http://www.votenader.org - Run with Ralph. http://www.tompaine.com - Common sense. http://www.transaction.net - What is money? http://www.grb.net - A new global currency. http://www.freespeech.org - Share your mind.
