Lately, Politico’s Ben Smith seems to be the reporter embedded with labor leaders.  Smith’s the guy that broke the SEIU Andy Stern resignation story and has had a lot of the scoop on what’s happening in the bedrooms within the House of Labor.

As a result, his tweet on twitter this afternoon is particularly relevant as it relates to the job-destroying and hallucinogenically named Employee Free Choice Act:

Lunch w/AFL-CIO prez Trumka, says they took down #efca banner bc it ripped, but that the issue lives: “We’ll find something to tack it on.” about 1 hour ago via UberTwitter

If this is indeed the back-door route that the new BMOC in DC is going to take on a bill that is bound to kill millions of more jobs, then politicians had better start reading the bills before they vote on them.
