Pass The PRO Act!
Lucy McBath
The PRO Act has 196 cosponsors in the House, 43 supporters in the Senate, and the support of President Biden and VP Kamala Harris. In Georgia, almost all Democratic Congresspeople support the PRO Act - except for Lucy McBath, who sold out her own union by voting NO on the PRO Act in 2020 to placate big business.
Her vote against worker's rights was a betrayal of the labor unions that put her in office in the first place, and of all the working people in her district. This is unacceptable! We must put her on notice and demand she vote YES on passing the PRO Act!

The labor movement has been the heart of just about all social progress in this country's history. Labor Unions turned Georgia blue in 2020 - now it's time for Democrats to deliver for working people!
The PRO Act could transform the landscape for labor organizing, nationwide. Here's a few ways the PRO Act could help workers right here in Georgia:
REPEAL "RIGHT-TO-WORK": Far from a job guarantee, Georgia's "right-to-work" laws mean that even if you form a union, win an election, and negotiate a contract with your employer, businesses can just hire non-union labor to undermine your organizing work. The PRO Act ensures that the union covers ALL workers at a workplace.
PROHIBIT EMPLOYER INTERFERENCE: 90% of employers force their employees to attend mandatory anti-union meetings where they use propaganda and scare tactics to stop workers from organizing. The PRO Act prevents employers from interfering in union elections & requiring workers to attend anti-union meetings.
COMBAT EMPLOYEE MISCLASSIFICATION: With the explosion of the "gig" economy, more and more workers are being misclassified as "independent contractors" so companies can dodge providing decent benefits. The PRO Act would stop this and penalize corporations for falsely telling their workers that they aren't really employees.
Lucy McBath, we call on you to vote YES and #PassThePROAct!
