On the morning of Tuesday, June 19, Senator Edward M. Kennedy started the debate on the Employee Free Choice Act, and it could come to a vote as early as this week.  To get up-to-the-minute coverage on the bill, visit the AFL-CIO's blog.  It's still not too late to contact your Senator and urge them to vote for this critical workers' rights legislation.

Later in the day on Tuesday, thousands of people participated in a massive rally in Washington, DC to help mobilize support for the Employee Free Choice Act, critical workers’ rights legislation that could soon come up for debate in the Senate.  It was truly inspiring - look at this slideshow of photos from the rally and see for yourself.

As action in the Senate nears, it’s time for all of us to speak out and get involved to help make the Employee Free Choice Act a reality for America’s workers.  We'll have more updates for you on the bill as we get them!
