Join the Million Member Mobilization -- Support the Employee Free Choice Act!
We're teaming up with hundreds of organizations and unions to launch a massive campaign -- the Million Member Mobilization.
Add your name to the petition supporting the Employee Free Choice Act, critical legislation that would restore workers' freedom to form unions; bargain for better wages, healthcare, and working conditions; and have a voice in our economy. Add your voice to this growing movement. Help us meet our goal of one million signatures! |
We asked you what was on your mind, and many of you took some time to tell us. All in all, we think this summary does a good job of capturing local teacher concerns. A PDF of the summary is available. |
