John,

Earlier this week, Congress took steps to improve conditions for workers nationwide by increasing funding for the National Labor Relations Board by $25 million in the end-of-year omnibus bill. It’s the first budget increase the Board has seen in nearly a decade.

While this is a welcome first step in the fight for workers’ rights, it’s not enough to meet the challenges faced by the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), including a staffing shortage.

Workers deserve better. Add your name here to demand Congress fully fund the NLRB in the next reconciliation bill!

The NLRB plays a significant role in ensuring that workers have the protections they need to organize and engage in collective action. They’ve offered vital support in a year with more than double the number of union representation petitions filed and a spike in unfair, often retaliatory labor practices from major corporations like Starbucks and Amazon.

If we want to do right by workers, we need to give them the tools they need to succeed.

Sign if you agree: To give workers a fighting chance, Congress must fully fund the NLRB in the next reconciliation bill.

The push for stronger labor legislation has been an uphill battle, with bills like the PRO Act failing in the Senate. The very least we can do is give an existing agency like the National Labor Relations Board the funding to meet this new wave in the fight for workers’ rights.

In solidarity,

Ro Khanna
