Mayor Brenner Issues Proclamation Supporting the Employee Free Choice Act

At the Labor Council meeting on February 27, 2008 York Mayor John Brenner issued a proclamation supporting the Employee Free Choice Act.  Click here to read the full proclamation.

The Mayor joins a growing list of over 270 state and local officials from across Pennsylvania who are urging Congress to pass this legislation that would enable workers to gain union recognition when a majority of employees sign up for representation.  The act would also provide for first contract mediation and establish meaningful penalties for violations of workers freedom to choose a union.

Rally in Atlantic City June 21

Get Ready!  On June 21, thousands of union members, community leaders and concerned citizens will rally to support Atlantic City casino workers who are fighting for fair contracts.

Atlantic City casino dealers, slot technicians and other gaming employees are dedicated to quality service.  But the casinos are not dealing fairly.  During the last year, casino workers voted by huge majorities to form their own unions, but the casinos either won’t  come to the table or do any real bargaining.  Call 202-639-6289 for more information

Next Labor Walk is Tuesday June 24

The next Labor Walk for York-Adams is scheduled for Tuesday June 24 at 5:00PM.  Walkers will be out talking to fellow union members to build support for the Employee Free Choice Act.
