Simple Solution: Make it count as treason if they don't report within a certain amount of time.
Wow, that's actively a terrible idea. Treason is a big deal, don't water it down.

Treason is giving aid and comfort to an enemy of the United States.
So who's the enemy of the United States in this case...the unions?
#1. I was using hyperbole for comedic value, if that wasn't clear.
#2. Treason is a)the act of attempting to overthrow the government,
b)a violation of allegiance to the state,
c)a betrayal of trust. In retrospect, however, the term 'sedition' is more appropriate in this setting.
#3. I was referring the senators who basically walked away, not the unions. I'm honestly not quite sure how you misunderstood that.
#4. Serious thread is taken seriously.
Almost too seriously.
