Group Warns Labor Bill Allows Govt Takeover of Union Contract Negotiations

The Faster Labor Contracts Act aims to speed up first-time union contracts but may reduce rights for both employees and employers, according to a labor policy group.
The act, supported by Democrats and 20 House Republicans, requires government intervention if no union contract is signed within 120 days.
