Dear Chamber Member,
You are receiving this e-mail either because you may be directly impacted by this bill or if the bill passes, it sets a precedence and provides momentum towards the national movement which will have far-reaching implications and change the scope of how business is done, which in turn, will affect your business and your employees’ free choice in determining labor representation.
HB 2974 denies employees the right to a secret ballot election when deciding whether or not to have a union representation in the workplace and forces arbitration if the employer and union cannot come to an agreement with a certain time period. This bill currently applies to some small businesses, non-profits and agricultural workers.
If vetoed, the Legislature can still override the bill during session. We’ve been sending “Action Alerts” and e-newsletters on this bill, however, we cannot stress enough how important it is for you to take action and send letters to your legislators.
We are running out of time. Please take action via one of the following ways by this Wednesday:
"do not override the veto" letter to your legislators (pre-written message provided) – preferable action
"give permission" to list your company on the Chamber letter to the legislators requesting them not to override the veto
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you for your time and support.
Sincerely,
Sherry Menor-McNamara
PARTICIPATE: ENHANCE YOUR STANCE!
