Photos by Luke Thomas.<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>By <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fogcityjournal.com\/wordpress\/author\/katanderson\/\">Kat Anderson<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>April 8, 2012<\/p>\n<p>Even while basking in the adulation of her hometown union allies, House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi sounds anything but ready to lay down arms in what she considers a growing right-wing assault on labor and the middle class.<\/p>\n<p>Pelosi was honored at a political dinner the other night by the San Francisco Labor Council for her 25 years of service in Congress. In her speech at the Hilton Hotel, she warned that Republicans fronting for a secretive monied elite intend to destroy collective bargaining.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThen they have it all,\u201d Pelosi said.<\/p>\n<p>Republicans led by presumptive presidential nominee Mitt Romney are accusing the Democrats of waging a class war, destroying the economy\u2019s job-creating potential by strangling corporations and small business in burdensome regulation and taxes.<\/p>\n<p>Pelosi would have none of it in her feisty talk to the San Francisco labor crowd.<\/p>\n<p>She offered no surprises following the accolades and chicken dinner served during the Labor Council\u2019s annual COPE benefit. She called for increased transparency in campaign finance, the salvation of Medicare, and more support for middle-class and working families.<\/p>\n<p>She insisted that Democratic leaders crave civility in Washington while \u201cright-wingers\u201d are poisoning the atmosphere with misrepresentations.<\/p>\n<p>Confusing the electorate with Republican double-speak and demonization is a deliberate strategy, she said, which causes people to grow frustrated and lose interest in politics. The idea is to create an atmosphere so toxic that ordinary voters decide it\u2019s not worth paying attention.<\/p>\n<p>Such a climate only favors the super-wealthy and special interests, which Pelosi characterized as the \u201cpoint zero one percent (who) want it all for themselves.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She said this November\u2019s election is \u201cthe most important election of our time.\u201d And though she admitted that\u2019s a phrase heard in practically every election since the Eisenhower administration, she insisted it\u2019s true &#8212; because the stakes keep rising every campaign cycle.<\/p>\n<p>Pelosi took special aim at the U.S. Supreme Court for laying groundwork for the battle now being waged.<\/p>\n<p>In the 2000 general election, the justices voted along party nomination lines (5-4) to deliver the presidential election to George W. Bush over Al Gore. Then, in 2010, the Supreme Court issued the notorious <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Citizens_United_v._Federal_Election_Commission\"><em>Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission<\/em><\/a> decision. That ruling, in the words of President Obama, \u201creversed a century of law to open the floodgates for special interests \u2014 including foreign corporations \u2014 to spend without limit in our elections.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Now, Pelosi expressed concern that a partisan high court will strike down some or all provisions of the <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Patient_Protection_and_Affordable_Care_Act\"><em>Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act<\/em><\/a>, signed into law last year and currently being challenged by several states and organizations as unconstitutional. She portrayed the court not as an independent judicial branch but a partner in a political game led by corporate interests.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat they are doing, aided and abetted by the Supreme Court &#8212; which my brother refers to as the \u2018last precinct\u2019 &#8212; is suffocating identified money and putting up obstacles to participation,\u201d Pelosi warned.<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 510px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2012\/pelosi_honored_cope_banquet_20120405\/mw2w2731_std.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">With an image of President Obama signing the historic and controversial Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act into law last year, Pelosi expressed concern that a partisan U.S. Supreme Court will strike down some or all provisions of the bill.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Pelosi harkened back to the days when elected officials occupied places along a political spectrum where the focus was to find common ground. \u201cNow, we\u2019re on two different roads,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>She offered an ABC summary of her own favored path, suggesting goals that should rise above the partisan divide. \u201cA,\u201d she said, was for \u201cAmerican made \u2013 we don\u2019t want to be protectionist; just self-reliant; \u201cB\u201d is to \u201cbuild the infrastructure\u201d of America; \u201cC\u201d is to strengthen \u201ccommunity.\u201d She added one more, a \u201cD\u201d for \u201cdisclose,\u201d drawing a big round of applause by suggesting that sponsors of political ads be required to \u201cstand by their ads, and at the end of the commercial let the public know the source.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The evening\u2019s other speakers &#8212; local and state labor leaders &#8212; focused on upcoming battles including a deceptively packaged assault on union political rights on the California November ballot and an array of San Francisco collective bargaining campaigns.<\/p>\n<p>Twenty-eight of 31 contracts between public sector unions and San Francisco City Hall are coming up for renegotiation. In the private sector, janitors, parking attendants, waste management drivers and building trades unions, to name a few, are enduring regressive bargaining. Meanwhile, concessionary demands from Verizon are still being faced by 40,000 CWA and IBEW workers, and talks with AT&amp;T appear headed toward the brink.<\/p>\n<p>Olga Miranda, head of the janitors union SEIU Local 87, said that over 100,000 workers are negotiating contracts with businesses in the Bay Area, and they are being squeezed for pay concessions that \u201care robbing our families with our eyes open.\u201d She got the labor crowd worked up as the Hilton waiters, represented by HERE Local 2, moved among the tables.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt does not matter if you wear a suit,\u201d she said. \u201cShow the people what solidarity looks like.\u201d<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 510px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2012\/pelosi_honored_cope_banquet_20120405\/mw2w2637_std.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Olga Miranda, SEIU Local 87.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Art Pulaski, chief officer of the California Labor Federation, provided a stark warning of a state measure planned for the California November ballot that he called \u201ccorporate deception.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOf anything we have ever faced before that will change the political landscape and turn California into a red state is this measure,\u201d Pulaski said.<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 510px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.fogcityjournal.com\/images\/photos2012\/pelosi_honored_cope_banquet_20120405\/mw2w2616_std.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Art Pulaski, California Labor Federation.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Pulaski said the measure, under the guise of \u201ccampaign finance reform,\u201d prohibits unions from supporting local or state candidates for public office.
