The fast food CEO has a long history of being no friend of labor:

• He’s railed against increasing the minimum wage and expanding overtime.
• He’s shortchanged workers at his Carl’s Jr. and Hardee’s restaurants and even refused to pay managers overtime they earned.
• He’s talked about replacing working people with machines.
• He’s admitted to hiring an undocumented immigrant to work as a housekeeper while avoiding paying taxes to the IRS and the state of California on the workers behalf.
