Workers shouldn’t have to wait years for their first contract!
Tell your senator to co-sponsor H.R. 5408/S. 844, the bipartisan Faster Labor Contracts Act.
Workers have the right to establish a collective bargaining agreement after they elect to form their union, but the law is full of loopholes, and companies drag out the negotiation process for years. On average, it takes 458 days to secure a first contract.
Workers across the country are done waiting for corporate-backed politicians to hold their donors accountable. Last week, Teamsters forced the House of Representatives to pass the Faster Labor Contracts Act with overwhelming bipartisan support.
Now, it’s the Senate’s turn to act. Tell your senator to co-sponsor the bill and demand that the Faster Labor Contracts Act receive a Senate Committee mark up.
