NUHW Files NLRB Complaint Against SEIU Over Bank Of America Loans – 06/18/09

By Doug Cunningham

Lawyers for the new National Union of Heath Care Workers filed charges with the National Labor Relations Board Wednesday against the SEIU over a loan from Bank of America. The NUHW says federal labor law bars loans between employers and unions attempting to organize their employees. SEIU and the NUHW are locked in a struggle over representation of tens of thousands of California health care workers. The SEIU International took over one of its locals – United Health Care Workers West. Ousted leaders of that local then formed the NUHW. SEIU’s Michelle Ringuette denies any wrongdoing in the union’s loan with Bank of America.

    So SEIU’s Michelle Ringuette denies any wrongdoing in the union’s loan with Bank of America? What else is new? For many years, Andy Stern and his henchmen protected and abetted former Local 6434 President and loyal Stern stooge, Tyrone Freeman, from federal and local prosecution for embezzling over 1 million dollars from union members. Even after Stern publicaly fired Freeman, Freeman continued on the SEIU payroll for another 6 months.
    Stern and SEIU are running a racket, a confidence game….and hospital workers are the victims!!! Is it any wonder why several locals all over the country are fighting to leave and get out of SEIU???
