The U.S. Senate MUST hear from ABC members to make the merit shop voice heard;
as the Employee Free Choice Act (S1041) or "Card Check" will be voted on this week.
Organized labor and their allies are in Washington, DC now talking to their Senators. Other nationally important issues like Immigration and Energy are NOT being dealt with so the Senate Majority can HELP these special interests! Organized Labor has literally HUNDREDS of calls being made every day to every office- it is UP TO YOU to make the ABC voice heard and to protect the right to privacy in the workplace!
Call or Write your Senator TODAY!

CALL! If you do not know your Senator's phone number, call (202) 224-3121 and ask to be connected, you can look up Senate numbers here: http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm.
Ask to speak with the aide responsible for labor policy. If they ask, tell them your name, the name of your company, and where you live. If the aide is unavailable, ask to leave a message.
Tell the aide that:
The so-called Employee Free Choice Act (S. 1041) would actually take away a worker's right to a federally supervised private ballot when deciding whether or not to join a union. Under the proposed "card check" system, workers' votes are made public to the employer, the union organizers and their co-workers.
EFCA does not protect the interests of individual liberty and the principles of a sound democracy. If Senator XXXX votes in support of S. 1041, they will be stripping away federally protected private ballots from the hands of American workers.
Elections should never be feared and should always remain private. It is the only option which protects an individual's freedom to choose without subtle or overt coercion. The only way to guarantee worker protection is through the continued use of a federally supervised private ballot election so that personal decisions about whether or not to join a union remain private. Private ballots protect free choice.
Senator XXXX should VOTE NO on EFCA when it is considered by the Senate later this week.
