The Issues


Right to Work - Jobs and the Economy - Davis Bacon - Project Labor Agreements



Workers in the United States are at an unprecedented turning point in our history.  For the past thirty years, trick down economic have negatively affected working families with stagnant wages and policies that saw a redistribution of wealth to families at the higher rungs of the economy.

This negative outflow of wealth and income from working families serves as part of a longer trend that saw downward pressures on wages and benefits for workers in line with the decline of unionization in the United States.  The inequality that has arisen from the decline in unionization has been well documented from the Economic Policy Institute to even, more recently, the International Monetary Fund.

This inequality is reflective of the need for good jobs through infrastructure investment and an investment in the American economy where jobs are in-sourced back to our shores rather than outsourced to foreign locales.

This page will serve as a resource clearinghouse for leaflets, flyers, workplace messaging and other election material to be shared with members who plan on voting in the 2016 election.
