A Level Playing Field is as Important in the Workplace as it is in Baseball
That’s why the players pictured above are among the many big-league players who support the Employee Free Choice Act.
These baseball players believe all Americans should have the same opportunity they’ve had—to be able to join a union without being fired and to negotiate with their employers without being penalized. Today, our country is facing some tough times. Health care costs are skyrocketing. Families are losing homes. Savings and retirement income are disappearing overnight. Now more than ever, we need a strong union movement to protect our jobs, our pensions, our future. The Employee Free Choice Act simply guarantees a level playing field for all workers. It makes sure everyone plays by the same rules. That’s as important in the workplace as it is in baseball. Pass the Employee Free Choice Act Now.
