Million Member Mobilization
Updated On: May 05, 2010 (12:44:00)

Union members know the best way for working families to get ahead is by bargaining collectively and gaining a union contract. Union members earn better wages, get better benefits and have better working conditions. We also have a real voice on the job, and the strength of millions of brothers and sisters gives us a powerful voice in the community and the nation.

But the system for forming unions and bargaining for a better life is broken. It has been perverted by employers who use it to intimidate, harass, coerce and even fire workers who want to join together with their colleagues for a better deal. A fair deal.
With your help, our unions will present the new president and Congress with 1 million signatures urging them to enact the Employee Free Choice Act. Sign the Petition Today!  (links to outside webpage)
 
The Employee Free Choice Act will:
 
1. Strengthen penalties against companies that coerce or intimidate employees trying to form unions and bargain;
 
2. Establish mediation and binding arbitration when the employer and workers cannot agree on a first contract; and
 
3. Enable employees to form unions when a majority signs authorization cards.

You Do Make a Difference!
