IT'S TIME TO RESTORE WORKERS' FREEDOM TO FORM UNIONS

This week Congress will be casting votes on the Employee Free Choice Act, possibly starting as early as Wednesday. We are asking all our participants to speak out in favor of reforming a system that has allowed brutal corporate intimidation tactics to suppress union participation by our citizens, to the detriment of our entire economy. This rampant abuse is fully documented by the links on this page.

America's working people are struggling to make ends meet these days and our middle class is disappearing. The best opportunity working people have to get ahead economically is by uniting to bargain with their employers for better wages and benefits.

Recent research has shown that some 60 million U.S. workers would join a union if they could.

But the current system for forming unions and bargaining is broken. Every day, corporations deny workers the freedom to decide for themselves whether to form unions to bargain for a better life. They routinely intimidate, harass, coerce and even fire workers who try to form unions and bargain for economic well-being.

The Employee Free Choice Act (H.R. 800, S. 1041), supported by a bipartisan coalition in Congress, would level the playing field for workers and employers and help rebuild America's middle class. It would restore workers' freedom to choose a union by:

1. Establishing stronger penalties for violation of employee rights when workers seek to form a union and during first-contract negotiations. 2. Providing mediation and arbitration for first-contract disputes. 3. Allowing employees to form unions by signing cards authorizing union representation.

We should add, that Dennis Kucinich has been a very strong supporter of this legislation, coming as he does from a true blue union background. Please consider therefore making a contribution to encourage him to continue to speak out on this issue.

Please take action NOW, so we can win all victories that are supposed to be ours, and forward this message to everyone else you know.
