Under current law, workers, to be represented, must vote in a secret ballot. The EFCA would give unions another way to monopolize a workplace: get a majority of workers to sign a card authorizing a union to represent them. This would make it easier for unions to organize workplaces because the unions could intimidate workers one by one. The virtue of a secret ballot, on the other hand, is that it lets workers vote the way they wish without fear of retribution.
