COALITION FOR A DEMOCRATIC WORKPLACE RELEASES NEW PRINT CAMPAIGN URGING LABOR SECRETARY NOMINEE HILDA SOLIS TO PROTECT SECRET BALLOTS

Solis Friday's Confirmation Hearing to Spotlight Anti-Worker Employee Free Choice Act

 

In advance of Friday's confirmation hearing for Labor Secretary, the Coalition for a Democratic Workplace (CDW) today began a print ad campaign urging Rep. Hilda Solis to protect worker privacy and secret ballot elections. Rep. Solis has previously supported the anti-worker Employee Free Choice Act, also known as "card check". This undemocratic legislation will effectively remove secret ballots for workers in union organizing elections and bind employers to contracts that inhibit their ability to create much-needed new jobs.

"We wanted to take the opportunity to remind members of Congress of the overwhelming opposition from the business community, their constituents and union households to this anti-worker legislation," said Brian Worth with the Coalition for a Democratic Workplace.

CDW is working to permanently defeat the "card check" legislation that would take away the private ballot, and to let Members of Congress and presidential candidates know not only how harmful it is, but that we will hold them responsible for how they vote. The success or failure of this issue will be determined by our ability to make our voice heard. We need your help to fight this legislation now.

We must protect the private ballot!
