Pressure on for Employee Free Choice Act Union Bill - Manufacturing News - Apparelnews.net: “The next 30 days are critical,” [attorney] Reinis said. Sen.

If senators do not reach a compromise by that date, Harkin will bring an “up-or-down vote,” Reinis said, which will make each senator’s vote a matter of public record—something senators facing re-election are loathe to encounter."
