4. Tierney is laying it out
This is the ANTI-WALMART bill, IMHO, and it needs to be passed!

6. Don't worry it'll get held up in the Senate
The Republic Party will argue that unions unfairly hinder businesses from exploiting workers.

7. I imagine there will be some Democratic defection in this vote
GOP will basically hold its troops together.

It'll pass the House but not by a large margin.

And there it will die in the Senate, I don't even know if it could attract a majority vote.
