The White House this week transmitted two union promotions through its
tax-paid email system, and although both praised the president, they gave no
appearance of having any other link to Obama administration operations,
prompting a Washington watchdog to wonder where is the dividing line between big
labor and the president.

The criticism comes from Judicial
Watch,
which just one day earlier issued a report that the Obama Health and
Human Services agency plans to spend $200 million of taxpayer funds to promote
Obamacare, the president’s signature law that has been declared unconstitutional
by two federal judges.

The union promotions were from the Service Employees International Union, or
SEIU, and the American Federation of State, County, Municipal Employees, or
AFSCME. While both interact regularly with the government and lobby on behalf of
their own interests, they are separate organizations from the government.

The releases from the unions on White House email gave no indication there
was any White House interaction; they simply were union statements.

“With the Obama administration, it is hard to tell where big labor unions end
and the Obama administration begins,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton.
“It is not unusual for a White House to promote favorable commentary, but it
seems improper to slap ‘The White House’ label on it as the Obama White House
did.
