Summary:

Reviews proposals to revise labor union recognition procedures by requiring secret ballot elections for union certification and requiring NLRB to certify a union if a majority of employees sign authorization cards. Covers relevant provisions in the National Labor Relations Act regarding forming or joining a union, research findings regarding the impact of changes in union recognition procedures, and the question of whether there is an economic rationale for giving workers the right to organize and bargain collectively.
