SEIU Goal: 15,000 people for Majority Signup and the Employee Free Choice Act

BY MICHAEL WHITNEY
3:16 PM Eastern - July 23, 2009

Since Andy Stern kicked off our campaign this week, more than 10,000 people signed our petition in support of majority signup - but we still need to hear from you.

Next week SEIU members will deliver our petition to the senators working on the Employee Free Choice Act. We want at least 15,000 people to show support for majority signup before we go to Congress.

Can you help us reach 15,000 signatures and add your name to the petition? Click here to sign.

Majority signup is based on a simple idea: if a majority of workers say they want a union, they should get a union. It's the best way to make sure workers have a free and fair choice to join a union without intimidation or harassment.

Thank you for your support. We'll be in touch again when our members deliver the petition.
