@RepFrenchHill he, too, was against his laborers having a voice. You are a chamber of commerce guy. What is the chamber of commerce but a collection of folks organized for their members’ benefit? That’s not a bad thing, except you wish to deny organizing for working people by throwing up

@RepFrenchHill Distraction designed to keep workers in their places. Workers deserve better from you, Congressman.

@RepFrenchHill do what I can to make sure the deck is not stacked against them. If you want working people to have livelihoods that give them a chance to have a piece of the American dream, you would support them in their quest to do so. Throwing up red herrings about forced union dues is a

@RepFrenchHill together to achieve it. You have spent a great deal of your time in Washington making sure banking interests are taken of. I have spent a lifetime in Arkansas doing all I can to help make sure working folks get a break, have healthcare coverage, a family-supporting wages, and

@RepFrenchHill voice, especially since they are doing the work and propagating the wealth. There is nothing wrong with Arkansans wanting to work together for the the possibility of a brighter future. We are clear we will not have your future, but we have a right to aspire to it and work

@RepFrenchHill family, have only a vague idea of what leisure time even feels like and still barely gett by or not at all. You might have been spared, but that’s no reason to remain willfully ignorant of the daily lives of your constituents. We support you and others who benefit from the

@RepFrenchHill It is one thing to have been lucky enough to have been born into a family in which your every need was taken care of. No worries. The luck of birth @RepFrenchHill obviously spared you from understanding what it’s like to go to work every day, work long hours, sacrifice time with

@RepFrenchHill union member in Arkansas all but three years of my adult working life. There is no doubt about the difference unions made in my pay, benefits and dignity as a working person. All of that time unions were (and still are) under attack as some awful bunch of workers wanting to have

@RepFrenchHill to their ability to do so. You tout the pretty sounding name “right to work” protects workers. The truth is that’s the exact opposite meaning that term. It is nothing more than code for “right to work for less” because workers have no organized power without a union. I’ve been a

Yeah, that happened, but it’s not policy. What policies and positions should POTUS have ripped from his report to the nation? I can’t imagine you missed or are ok with some of the the dark rhetoric, misleading with half truths and outright untruths.
