Tim Walberg & Mike Bishop have already proven that together they are no friend to Michigan’s working families, by voting to eliminate prevailing wage standards for highway workers, and by supporting legislation to allow single women to be fired for getting pregnant or using birth control, or to stop home health care workers from getting overtime pay.
Now this terrible twosome has teamed up once again to make sure working families don’t get paid for their time.
Even they can’t tell you why they’re voting against Michigan workers. Walberg himself admitted, “Guys like me don’t fully understand it yet.”
Bishop seems to have a clearer idea. Of his vote to get rid of prevailing wage laws last year, Bishop said it was to “launch a missile” to “get their attention.”
“It’s outrageous that Tim Walberg and Mike Bishop together want single women to get fired for using birth control or getting pregnant – while preventing home health care workers and working families from getting paid for the hours they put in,” said Sacha Haworth of the DCCC. “This Terrible Twosome is so out-of-touch with the Michigan families they represent that they aren’t even trying to hide it – now they’re just openly competing for the affection of wealthy corporate executives.”
