Hi John,
I'm Congressman Mark Pocan, a small business owner and proud union member of the International Union of Painters and Allied Trades.
I support working people, and this is why I voted to pass the Protecting the Right to Organize (PRO) Act:
- Collective bargaining gives workers a voice on wages, working conditions and benefits.
- Employers should face consequences if they retaliate against workers who are organizing.
- We need stronger and up-to-date labor laws to protect workers.
President Joe Biden urged Congress to send the PRO Act to his desk. So on March 9, my colleagues and I passed the PRO Act in the House.
Now it’s the Senate’s turn.
This week, the AFL-CIO is holding a Week of Action for the PRO Act. There will be virtual and in-person events. You can also learn more about how the PRO Act:
We must get this passed in the Senate. Join us and support the PRO Act.
