The Pro-Act passed the House of Representatives, tell the Senate to take Action

{NAME}, On March 9th the United States House of Representatives passed H.R.842, Protecting the Right to Organize Act of 2021, known as the PRO Act. The PRO Act vastly expands labor protections related to employees' rights to organize and collectively bargain in the workplace. Among other landmark changes, it: - Gives workers and the National Labor Relations Board, not employers, control in the timing of union elections. - Penalizes employers and corporate executives for illegally retaliating against workers trying to organize. - Prohibits employers from permanently replacing workers when they strike. During his recent joint address to Congress, President Biden called on Congress to pass the PRO Act and send it to his desk in support of the right to unionize. This is the second year in a row that the PRO Act has passed the House, and now we have a President that supports it as well. Now, it is up to us to make sure it passes the Senate. [Join President Biden and DFA in demanding the Senate pass the Protecting the Right to Organize (PRO) Act.]( [Add Your Name]( Right now, gig companies, such as Uber and Lyft, rely on a business model that exploits independent contractors. Under current laws, workers at these gig companies do not have rights to unemployment insurance, worker’s compensation, or employer health benefits. But the PRO Act makes more workers eligible to unionize, including these independent contractors. That is why gig economy companies have already spent over $1 million dollars lobbying against the PRO Act. They know that any legislation that makes it easier to form a union and win a contract, and harder for companies to union-bust, and easier for the National Labor Relations Board to crack down on rule-breaking companies is bad news for them.
