Collective Bargaining Under Attack...Again.

Earlier this year, we witnessed Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker attack the ability for teachers and other public employees to unionize. His law passed, but not without a fight.
The attack on public employee unions has spread to Ohio where the Governor there signed a bill that strips away most collective bargaining rights for teachers, firefighters and police officers. Unions have mobilized in Ohio and they are fighting back. They collected nearly 1.3 million signatures to have the issue placed on the ballot this November to be considered for repeal. Check out the website We Are Ohio for details and how you can help.
