Fact is...

Many organizations that represent businesses, especially those that are anti-union, oppose aspects of majority sign-up (card check) legislation.[16] For instance, the National Restaurant Association cites three tenets of card check that it opposes.[17] The employers claim that such laws could result in employees being subjected to coercion by unions, employers, or other co-workers. Union supporters counter that a study by the HR Policy Association, a pro-business organization, identified just 113 cases since the inception of the National Labor Relations Act as involving fraud and coercion in connection with card collection. Upon review, however, only 42 of those cases actually found misconduct in the signing of union authorization cards since 1935, or about one case every two years.
