Georgia AFL-CIO Workers Information Network
Pass Employee Free Choice

The U.S. House of Representatives will vote soon on the Employee Free Choice Act—the most important labor legislation to come before Congress in over 70 years .  The Act insures our freedom to bargain for better wages, benefits and working conditions.

Opponents and their corporate front groups are all over Capitol Hill right now. They are running radio, tv and newspaper ads spreading half truths and innuendo. Every day another newspaper runs one of their anti Employee Free Choice op eds or letters. Congress and the general public is definitely hearing from them.

Before the Congress or the Senate votes, make sure your Representative, your Senators and your local media are hearing your voice, too.

Please use the following form to send a letter to your local newspaper supporting the the Employee Free Choice Act.  Do it today while it is fresh on your mind. There are some talking points below.
