Help Make America Strong Again

Please do your part to restore workers’ freedom to decide for themselves whether to have a union. Send a message now urging your members of Congress to support the Employee Free Choice Act.

Some 57 million workers in America say they would join a union tomorrow if they could. Today, a bill was reintroduced in both houses of Congress that would level the playing field for workers trying to form unions. It’s the bipartisan Employee Free Choice Act and it could make a world of difference for working people trying to gain a voice on the job. Please click the following link to urge your members of Congress to support it:

Workers Unions are a horrible ideal in American History they seek not to help the workers but only to help themselves the leaders of these unions collect your dues and become rich while they do little to help the only thing they allow is a forum for the labors to meet and come up with a plan, which in todays day of technology you would not need to become a dues paying member of a union. also the loss of labor jobs in the united states is not bad it improves the education of our people as well as allowing us to focus and expand on new areas of expertise. Every time we hold on and baby a struggling company to save jobs we are costing the country millions and billions in opportunity costs. no wonder only the most uneducated and narrow minded people join Unions take West Virginia the state I reside in every labor and odd ball job has a union. WV is also among the 3 poorest states in the country. Now take Virginia one of the most anti-union states in the country. It has some of the most educated, best paid over all citizens and likely the most stable economy in the country (according to citizen spending not the governments). Unions have damaged and destroyed many of Americas most trademark Companies forcing these companies to go over sees because they are forced to pay employees in many of these unions more than their production levels are worth. Another show of how unions hurt the economy and job market look at Pittsburgh and Detroit the two most well know union cities in the country also the only two major cities in the united states that have faced steady economic and population decreases.
