Nelson made her comments following the Department of Homeland Security announcement on Friday that it is stripping Transportation Safety Administration [TSA] workers of their collective bargaining rights.

They came for the trade unionists, and I ___ speak out.

Precisely. I'm 100% against the TSA as an agency, but I'll still defend the workers and their collective bargaining rights.
