4. If we don't want employment in this country to slide further toward
actual slavery, we will get the Employee Free Choice Act passed.

Without the right to unionize, the workplace will continue to be dominated by
unequal and unfair treatment, hiring of scabs, threats of layoff and firing, and lack of adequate
pay and benefits. We need to get back to the days when the employee/employer scale was balanced
by equal power.
