Friend, right now, autoworkers at non-union plants across the country are fighting to unionize their workplaces with the UAW. But their companies are illegally interfering with these efforts. Every worker deserves the right to join a union. And it's up to us to protect that right. So please, will you join me by adding your name to my new Stand With Workers Petition before midnight tonight?

Like so many Michiganders and Americans, I come from a proud union family. My dad was a public school teacher and a member of the National Education Association (NEA), and my mother was a nurse's aide who led the charge to unionize her workplace with the Service Employees International Union (SEIU).
|
Growing up, I heard stories of how my mother's employer tried to sabotage her unionizing efforts. But she refused to give up the fight to win her colleagues fair wages and better working conditions. My mother has always been an inspiration to me, and I was proud to carry her legacy with me on the picket lines. Her relentless spirit and commitment to workers' rights is exactly what this moment demands of us.
|
Across the nation, workers are standing up for fair pay, fair benefits, and good working conditions. Folks are fed up with CEOs raking in historic salaries and celebrating record profits while their wages stay the same. And it's no wonder why: It would take the average autoworker literally hundreds of years to make what their CEO makes in just one year.
|
Enough is enough. Every single worker, no matter where they work or live, deserves the right to join a union – without negative pressure or interference from their CEO or board room. Unions make America and American families strong. And I'll never stop fighting to protect them.
|
I'm going to continue to fight for workers' right to unionize – and I hope you will too. That's why I'm calling on 5,000 folks to add their names to my Stand With Workers Petition before midnight tonight. Please, friend, will you join me and add your name now?
