Obama Volunteers Organize to Pass Employee Free Choice

November 21, 2008

Norwalk, Ohio Local 1422 member Rob Rhineberger plans to channel what he learned as a Volunteer Political Organizer in Wisconsin into his efforts to make the Employee Free Choice Act the law of the land. “The Employee Free Choice Act will greatly help our ability to organize new members because it creates a level playing field and protects workers who get involved.

It is up to each and every one of us to use this unprecedented opportunity to win pro-worker legislation.”
