It’s a move that allows the country to finally enter the 21st Century with respect to its air traffic control capabilities, thereby making the skies safer and plane travel more cost efficient. In addition, unmanned drone flights can start flying American skies in the next several years. <a href="http://www.biglaborbailout.com/2012/02/07/congress-chooses-modernization-over-big-labor/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

First, he recess appoints Richard Griffin and Sharon Block to the National Labor Relations Board without giving the Senate any time whatsoever to conduct its Constitutional responsibility to advise and consent, and next, his Justice Department issues a legal opinion which disputes previous findings from that very same office,” said Fred Wszolek, spokesperson for the Workforce Fairness Institute (WFI). <a href="http://www.biglaborbailout.com/2012/01/12/justice-department-contradicts-itself-on-recess-appointments/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>
