"soft money" donations to campaigns or candidates they support.
Unlike PACs, 527 organiztions do not coordinate with specific
candidates, and as a result, are not regulated by the Federal
Election Commission.

Unfair Labor Practices
The National Labor Relations Board investigates instances of
union violations of the National Labor Relations Act and other
labor laws. Unfair Labor Practices include instances of bad
faith bargaining, excessive dues, violence, threats and many
other violations. |

Unionization Elections
The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) oversees union representation
elections, or "R Cases." To call an election, 30 percent of affected
employees are required to sign a petition for an election. Elections can
be used to both certify and decertify union representation.
Increasingly, unions are avoiding the NLRB election process, instead
opting for "Card Check" unionization.
