 Last year, the National Labor Relations Board decided to reclassify employees with limited supervisory duties as 'supervisors,' stripping millions of workers of their right to form a union. The very agency that is supposed to protect a worker's basic right to form a union has once again taken away those rights.
Only Congress has the power to restore those rights. Please write to your Members of Congress and ask them to co-sponsor the RESPECT Act (H.R. 1644 and S. 969) and give workers the respect they deserve.
