    I’m pretty sure the vast majority of us have been subject to this exact threat.

      I didn’t know it was a violation of labor law, though. Nice to know some protections still exist for us

      I had no idea that we could sue about it

        You can file complaints with NLRB or civil suits about lots of things, but the details matter if you want to go anywhere with them. For the most part, unionizing and union related activities are protected actions, within reason as defined by law. If your action is union related, and they fire you, and you have some reason of evidence that it happened in that way, then you might want to look into following up on it.

        As always, expect your bosses and HR to lie about what happened. It’s really good if you have video evidence, or at least multiple witnesses, and certainly take notes right after having any such incident.

    Why. The fuck. Is healthcare (and retirement benefits) tied to an employer for so many Americans!?

    Land of the Free, as in we’re free to run off and die in the streets if our employers will it. Basically becoming a corrupt oligarchy like Russia…
