Richard A. Epstein –
March 24, 2009

This is a white paper by Richard Epstein, adapted from a fall 2008 speech delivered at the Manhattan Institute during Epstein's time as a visiting scholar there. In "The Employee Free Choice Act: Free Choice or No Choice for Workers," Epstein outlines how the EFCA seeks to create a labor regime whose untested provisions and coercive power will add countless business casualties to our already suffering economy.
