U.S : The SENATE must PASS THE PRO ACT.

 

 

 

Dear friend, over 600 workers at a Topeka, Kansas, Frito-Lay plant have been on strike for more than a week, citing low pay and brutal working hours that the company is fighting to preserve in contract negotiations.    Sign and send the petition. Support these workers. Demand the Senate pass Protecting the Right to Organize (PRO) Act.        SIGN AND SEND THE PETITION                       The Frito-Lay employees are mistreated and overworked. The team operated at 60% capacity for 13 months with record numbers---with not even a thank you from leadership.    Their union contract came to a close in September and the new contract offered a 2% raise meaning a mere 50 cents more per hour rate--- and would not have guaranteed anything approaching reasonable schedules, for workers burned out by outrageous amounts of forced overtime.    This treatment of valuable workers is disrespectful and inhumane. This is why we must urge the Senate to pass the PRO Act immediately.        Sign and send the petition. Urge the Senate to pass the PRO Act.            SIGN AND SEND THE PETITION           The Protecting the Right to Organize (PRO) Act is a major step toward ensuring that workers can exercise their basic right to form a union and collectively bargain for higher pay, safer working conditions, and decent benefits — including paid leave, quality health care, and a secure retirement.    Democrats in the House have passed the PRO Act. President Biden is eager to sign it. So now we only need the Senate to make it law.        It’s time for the Senate to enforce big corporations to protect our workers. Sign and send the petition to the Senate. Pass the PRO Act.           SIGN AND SEND THE PETITION           Keep Fighting,              Cayana Mackey, Daily Kos.                                                           Daily Kos Relies on Readers Like You.
