we knew this was coming and we can be sure the Koch Brothers are behind this.With the GOP controlling both houses of Congress,every Democrat is going to have to fight like hell..but you know there will be those CorporaCrats that will probably support this like they did when they voted against Canadian pharmaceutical drugs..
Knowing there are Democrats that are owned by the Corporate mafia so just to have this on the Legislative agenda is bad new for Unions and labor.
