STAND UP TO NLTB, STAND UP TO UNIONS, STAND UP TO OBAMA

Dear Conservatives,

Outraged Americans are standing up in opposition to the Obama Labor Board's latest scheme to grease the skids to force workers under union-boss control.

Will you join them?

Through August 22, the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) is accepting comments on its proposed changes to union certification election procedures.

Over 8,000 individuals have submitted comments -- and the vast majority are pro-Right to Work and against the forced-unionism scheme.

The NLRB's proposed new election guidelines are designed to make union certification elections as one-sided as possible by:
** Encouraging union operatives to conduct stealth organizing campaigns for months or even years until they collect "union authorization cards" from just 30 percent of the workforce;
** Ambushing the rest of the workforce with quick-snap elections just days after union organizers turn the cards in to the NLRB;
** Denying workers sufficient time to counter union-boss propaganda, educate themselves and coworkers about the effects of unionization, and organize in opposition to the union;
** Forcing companies to hand over to union organizersthe name, address, phone number, email address, and shift schedule of each employee, exposing workers to "home visits" and other intimidation tactics.
Last week, Foundation staff attorney William Messenger argued at the Board's open meeting against the new ambush election procedures.

Union bosses desperately want these new rules to make it easier to steamroll their way into workplaces across the country.

It's vital the Board hears from citizens like you, including private-sector workers who could soon find themselves ambushed with a quick-snap union certification election.

Please, act right away.

Sincerely,

Mark Mix
