Freedom Foundation AKA OptOutToday (and all the other names they go by) don't care about your or your family.
Their real agenda? Cut your wages and benefits, eliminate your pensions and privatize your job.
We can not take these benefits for granted. They are hard fought in every contract.

Voting is our opportunity to influence policies facing ours and the next generation: the cost of college, lack of affordable healthcare, and the need for minimum wage protections.

On this day in historyOctober 24, 1940, The Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938’s mandate of a 40-hour work week with time-and-a half overtime pay for hours of work beyond that goes into effect. The legislation was passed to eliminate “labor conditions detrimental to the maintenance of the minimum standard of living necessary for health, efficiency, and the general well-being of workers.”

Super easy action you can takeOur existing labor laws are out-of-date and inadequate to combat the greed of the 1%. Companies fire pro-union workers in one-fourth of all organizing campaigns, often with little or no penalty. This needs to stop.
Tell Congress we need to fight back by passing the PRO Act. Our right to organize must be protected!
