| Message | Unions are crucially important to ensuring that workers get a chance to get their concerns addressed with management and ensuring a stronger middle class. we oppose this degree of measure to weaken their power. |
| Date | 11:39:10, November 04, 2016 CET | From | Patriotic Party of Baltusia | To | Debating the Closed Shops Ban 4114 |
| Message | Unfortunately you are allowing a system to remain in place whereby workers are forced to be a member of a specific union to get a job at a certain workplaces, rather than have the free will to join a union if they so wish. I have nothing against unions as long as people have the choice to join them or not, but closed shops are an infringement of civil and workers' liberties and their right to choose. |
