Video: President-elect Obama supports the Employee Free Choice Act 		Print

Now that this historic election is over, we have an unprecedented opportunity to restore our struggling middle class with good, union jobs. President-elect Barack Obama is ready to lead the charge:

I've fought to pass the Employee Free Choice Act in the Senate. And I will make it the law of the land when I'm President of the United States of America.

- President-elect Barack Obama, 4/2/08.

This bill has been before Congress in the past, but with a new Congress and support from Barack Obama, 2009 represents our best chance in years to advance this legislation. Our lawmakers are setting their agenda as we speak – they need to hear from you.

Watch President-elect Obama talk about the Employee Free Choice Act, then sign the petition in support of the bill.
