Can you imagine a CEO agreeing to work without a contract that guarantees pay and benefits? It would never happen. But when companies prevent workers from forming unions, that’s exactly what they’re making employees do: work without any assurance of pay and benefits. If we collect enough signatures and elect friends of working families, next year we can enact the Employee Free Choice Act, which would:

– Establish stronger penalties for violations of employee rights when workers seek to form a union and during first-contract negotiations.

– Guarantee that workers who choose union representation will have a contract.

– Remove barriers that deny workers the opportunity to form unions and bargain for better wages, healthcare and pensions.
