The Face of SEIU

Take a good look at picture above. This is the face of SEIU. These are the people we’re fighting against.

We’re not in a war with the union “members” in particular or “working families” in general, as the unions allege. In fact, we’re fighting to give these people a choice the union wants to deny them, and the average rank-and-file home healthcare and childcare worker appreciates knowing they have options.

Our true opponents are the union leaders and the thugs they employ to do their bidding.

Exhibit A is the character above, who showed up on Freedom Foundation CEO Tom McCabe’s doorstep a few weeks back just as he was sitting down to dinner with his wife Susan.  Like any rational person, Tom and Susan refused to open the door.

The creepy fellow continued to ring the doorbell 26 times until Tom took his picture and threatened to call the police, at which point he beat a hasty retreat.

Turns out he was a process server for the Service Employees International Union with yet another subpoena, despite the fact that Freedom Foundation attorneys handle all subpoenas and SEIU has been informed to just drop off the documents at our office.

But they didn’t, and they’ll persist with these despicable tactics until they’re beaten once and for all. Really, what else have they got? When you don’t have the truth, the law or common decency on your side, you resort to coercion and intimidation.

Well, their tactics will not work on us.  As the Wall Street Journal said recently, the Freedom Foundation is engaged in hand-to-hand combat with union thugs.  And we are winning.  We have freed over 7000 care providers from union tyranny!

This is the true face of SEIU and all the other public-employee unions who’ll stop at nothing to keep their “members” from finding out their dirty little secret.

When you peel back the slick, lying façade, this is who SEIU really is.

Disturbing, isn’t it?
