We’re seeing an inspiring wave of union organizing across the country, and we should be doing everything we can to roll out the welcome mat — but 27 states have laws on the books designed to slam the door on unionization.

Over the years, corporate interests have gotten state Republicans to pass so-called “right-to-work” laws. That’s a slick name for a dangerous policy which prevents unions from collecting dues from non-union members who are benefiting from union-negotiated contracts.

The result? A 5% decrease in unionization rates, and lower average wages for all full-time workers to the tune of 3.1%. Because when unions win, it isn’t just a win for union members — they raise the floor for all working people.

These laws make it harder for workers to form unions and fight for higher wages, fair benefits, and safe working conditions. So I’ve got a bill to repeal all of them across the country: the Nationwide Right to Unionize Act.

I re-introduced it this week with Representative Brad Sherman, and we’re going to keep fighting alongside our co-sponsors in Congress to get it passed, but we can’t do it alone.

Will you add your name as a grassroots co-sponsor of our Nationwide Right to Unionize Act? [[link removed]]

Let’s make it clear: People across the country are in this fight to put more power in the hands of unions — because that puts more power in the hands of workers.

Lately, labor unions have been growing — in size AND popularity — while delivering real wins for workers.

I stand in solidarity with workers everywhere, from Starbucks baristas to Google cafeteria workers and everyone in between, who are recognizing their power and coming together to use it through unions.

Working people across the country should be able to exercise this fundamental right without being held back by union-crushing laws, so I’m staying in the fight to clear those laws off the books.

Please sign on to say you support the Nationwide Right to Unionize Act — and let’s fight side by side to get it passed. [[link removed]]

Thanks for being a part of this,
