The bill to restore federal workers’ union rights has bipartisan support from a majority of members in Congress! Tell your rep to sign the discharge petition for the Protect America’s Workforce Act to reverse Trump’s union-busting executive order! act.aflcio.org/call_campaig...
In this world where truth is under attack at every turn we need trusted public media. Support your local public broadcasters and support candidates who support public media.
Americans of all political stripes support unions. That’s why we have the bill AND votes to overturn Trump’s union-busting executive order. Call your reps and tell them to sign the discharge petition and bring @golden.house.gov’s Protect America’s Workforce Act to the floor for a vote.
I am strongly opposed to funding cuts for public broadcasting, and will support the restoration of these funds.
