A National Labor Relations Board trial examiner ruled that Wirt Burns of Western Meat Packers in Grand Junction Colorado must bargain in good faith with the AFL CIO Amalgamated Meat Cutters Union despite his religious belief that the Bible forbids such a contract. The finding concludes Burns used scripture to justify refusing a union contract, violating workers rights by interfering with union activity.
