A group of 67 Minnesota AFSCME members attended a rally last week and lobbied senators to support the Employee Free Choice Act. They met with U.S. Senator Amy Klobuchar, who is a co-sponsor of the bill.
AFSCME members delivered more than 1,000 cards signed by Minnesotans urging Senator Norm Coleman to support the Employee Free Choice Act. Coleman has indicated he opposed the legislation.
John Ewaldt of AFSCME Local 8 informed Coleman\'s staff that only 38 percent of Americans think today\'s children will do better than their parents.

"My children will need decent jobs, health insurance and retirement security," he said. "Please support the Employee Free Choice Act and help my kids work union and live better."
The act would enable workers to form unions when a majority sign union authorization cards, establish mediation and binding arbitration when the employer and workers cannot agree on a first contract, and strengthen penalties for companies that coerce or intimidate workers.
Unions and other advocates say that by giving workers more power to join together, they will strengthen the shrinking middle class.
