Right to Work (for less) ??

The following message is from our Indiana State AFL-CIO President, Ken Zeller.

Please take notice that so-called “Right to Work” legislation has been introduced in the Indiana General Assembly as House Bill 1019. As you all know, this legislation is extremely detrimental to Indiana’s workers, our economy and our social fabric. This bill has been assigned to the House Committee on Employment and Labor, which is chaired by the bill’s author. Therefore, the bill could begin to move at any time.

Obviously, any movement of this bill must be met with determined and united resistance on behalf of all Indiana’s workers. I am asking each of you to keep your calendars open for Wednesday afternoons for the next four weeks. The House Employment and Labor Committee meets every Wednesday at 3:30 p.m. Please plan to respond to our call (possibly on short notice) with trips to the Indiana Statehouse and be prepared to summon a response from your members as well. We will call on you for a convincing show of assistance the moment this issue is scheduled for hearing.

Thank you for all you do on behalf of Hoosier workers every day.
