Elyria Chamber Urges Opposition to Four Bills
The Elyria Chamber of Commerce executive committees urge members to write to senators and representatives to vote against four pending measures. The bulletin notes that manufacturers and business groups nationwide support defeating the bills, two in the Senate and two in the House, including the Wagner labor disputes bill and social security reforms. It argues the labor bill would empower a national labor board and the Thirty hour week is unworkable, while criticizing the social security and holding company bills for cost, taxes, and disruption to utilities despite some claimed positives.
