Summary
Expresses the sense of Congress that: (1) the Obama Administration should immediately withdraw the Department of Labor (DOL) notice of proposed rulemaking to rescind the Form LM-2 (labor organization financial disclosure report); (2) DOL should rededicate itself to enforce the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act of 1959 and not weaken disclosures provided for in the Form LM-2 regulation; and (3) all Americans are encouraged to share their thoughts on the financial disclosure of labor organizations through the comment process on this rule which closes on May 21, 2009.
