Comments on: Letter to the editor http://www.communityadvocate.com/2012/10/10/letter-to-the-editor/ Covering news in the Massachusetts towns of Westborough, Northborough, Southborough, Marlborough, Shrewsbury, Hudson Wed, 22 May 2013 11:24:38 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.5.1 By: Gina Sabin http://www.communityadvocate.com/2012/10/10/letter-to-the-editor/#comment-29015 Gina Sabin Thu, 18 Oct 2012 20:12:20 +0000 http://www.communityadvocate.com/?p=27218#comment-29015 I wonder why Ms. Dykema can’t tell the truth about the forced unionization of women owned small daycares that she voted for, because she follows the bidding of the big labor unions and votes the way they want.

If a home daycare accepts ONE child a voucher they are focred into the union!!

If the legislature wanted to increase the rates they could just do it. Senate Republicans offered an amendment to increase the rates and Democrats voted it down. Hence this is just to put home daycare people into a union

Two years ago the union tried to recruit the home daycare centers into the union. They were turned down so now they got the legislature to force them into the union.

Why do daycare centers need a lobbyist??? That’s what is wrong

This puts home daycare at a competitive disadvantage because thy now have to pay union dues in the cost of doing business.

Home daycare centers are being forced if they accept one child. Moreover, if the home daycare centers wants to add children to their center to cover the costs, they can only take voucher children.

Dykema’s people should be ashamed for not telling the truth. The legislature could have raised the rates without forcing them into the unions! Shame on Dykema.

Maybe no one local would try to put words in Rep. Dykema’s mouth.
