MAYBE THEY CAN'T STRIKE BUT THERE ARE FEDERAL UNIONS

One of the newer winger memes is that Federal employees can't unionize and that means Pres. Obama is a hypocrite because he defended the Wisconsin public unions without promoting the same rights to Federal employees.

Well, there are Federal unions!

The American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE) is the largest federal employee union representing 600,000 federal and D.C. government workers nationwide and overseas.

The National Treasury Employees Union (NTEU) has 150,000 working members in 30 departments and agencies.
