I’m freshman Congressman Greg Casar, representing Texans from Austin to San Antonio…and proudly endorsed by the PCCC during my campaign!

This past week, Democrats introduced the most important piece of pro-union legislation in Congress -- the PRO Act (Protecting the Right to Organize Act).

The bill gives people the right to join a union, instead of making it a fight to join a union. If we want to tackle wealth inequality in this country, the PRO Act is a game changer for workers.

Will you sign on as a public supporter of the PRO Act? I will share your support with my colleagues on both sides of the aisle so they can see how popular this is.

Here are three of the most important provisions of the PRO Act:

  1. Bans union busting -- including closed door meetings where bosses can get workers together in the middle of the workday, and tell them they shouldn’t join a union. The PRO Act has real penalties for union busting activity.
  2. Gets rid of "right to work for less" laws in places like Texas that hurt unions’ financial ability to protect their workers.
  3. Requires employers to come to the table and negotiate a fair contract when workers finally win a union. When workers win new wages, it inspires more union organizing activity.

In this country, the majority of workers would join a union if they had the choice. But only about 10% of Americans are in a union – because we lack laws like the PRO Act.

Please sign on as a supporter of the PRO Act here -- and help me show my colleagues in Congress how much support there is for unions and workers.

(And, please forward this email to others!)

Thanks for being a bold progressive.

-- Congressman Greg Casar (TX-35)
