Congress Poised to Act! Card Check

Background:

The "card check" legislation was introduced Tuesday, March 10 in both the House and Senate. The bill is identical to last year’s bill.
The Employee Free Choice Act (EFCA) would take away a worker’s right to a federally supervised private ballot election when deciding whether or not to select union representation.
AGC supports the status quo, which allows both card-check recognition and secret-ballot elections to establish union representation and remains the most fair and reliable way to determine the desire of employees to be represented by a union.
EFCA imposes unrealistically short deadlines for labor-management negotiations over a first contract before mandating third-party interference. It allows a third party to dictate wages, hours, and terms and conditions of employment.

Action Needed:

AGC opposes efforts to change the union selection process and believes that the status quo provides better protection of employee free choice and labor relations stability. Please contact your congressional delegation today and urge them to oppose The (So-Called) Employee Free Choice Act.
