The short explanation of this alert was:

Stop Three State Bills Threatening Our Wages, Our Benefits, Our Voice and Our Unions

Right now, three new bills in the state legislature—H.B. 439, 440 and 441—are threatening our wages, our benefits, our voice and our unions.

H.B. 439 bans employers and employees from agreeing that nonmembers should pay a fair share of what it costs the union to negotiate and guarantee their wages and benefits. When nonmembers don’t pay their fair share, it drains the union’s resources and ability to negotiate good contracts. We all suffer.

H.B. 440 would force local unions, elected leaders and even shop stewards to compile expensive, unreasonable reports. But it would let corporations and other organizations off the hook. H.B. 440 unfairly singles out working people and our unions for costly, burdensome regulations.

H.B. 441 takes away our right to fight for working families on issues such as health care and better benefits. It prohibits us from working on voter registration and ballot initiative campaigns while allowing big corporations and wealthy contributors to keep on writing big checks to make their voices heard. 

Please use the form below to send a message now urging your state representative to VOTE “NO” on these anti-worker bills.
