Balance at Work with Employee Free Choice
Workers deserve a fair chance to unite with their coworkers to form unions. But our current laws are stacked toward large corporations and billionaire CEOs over our families.
Tens of thousands of workers are fired every year for
trying to form unions. And even more are faced with illegal
intimidation and coercion from corporations. In fact, workers who support a union
are fired in 25 percent of private-sector union election campaigns.
Sixty million workers in America say they would like to have a union but can't because of employer interference. When some workers are denied a voice on the job it violates the American ideal of fairness and equality. And it prevents them from being able to share in the prosperity they have done so much to create.
Corporate CEOs are funding more than $100 million in attacks on Employee Free Choice, but those same CEOs wouldn't work a day
without a written contract spelling out their salary and benefits--which is all America's workers want.
American workers who want to unite to improve their lives need stronger laws to support the basic freedom to choose to form a union.
