Stripping Unions of Collective Bargaining Rights: Federal Edition?

Ohio and Wisconsin have successfully passed legislation to curb the power of state labor unions.

Iowa has contemplated the same measure, which will most likely fail, if not at least face severe opposition, since Democrats still control the legislature in that state.

I wish that the Republicans in the US Congress would wield their will against the employee unions in the Beltway and throughout the nation. Like thes states already initiating serious policy changes, the U. S. House and the Senate should press through legislation requiring federal employees to contribute more toward their pensions and benefits and strip them of collective bargaining power.

Imagine the future savings that this country would enjoy, and the greater freedom that our citizens would retain by putting an end to lobbying and collective stalling by federal employees.
