Barack Obama
What we shouldn't be doing is trying to take away your rights to bargain for better wages or working conditions... These so-called right to work laws, they don't have to do with economics they have everything to do with politics. What they're really talking about is giving you the right to work for less money.
Barack Obama
We're going to reverse a trend that is killing most families in this country, and that is they're having to go in their pocket for more and more money for health care every year.
Barack Obama
