ambush election block support letter

1
U.S. House of Representatives Washington D.C. March 16, 2015 The National Labor Relations Board’s (NLRB) “ambush election” rule, finalized in December 2014, is an outrageous assault on worker privacy. The rule is designed to limit employers’ ability to adequately prepare for union elections and keep workers from gathering the facts they need to make informed decisions about unionization. It also exposes workers to intimidation from union bosses by requiring that business owners provide their employees’ personal information to union officials, including phone numbers and home addresses. Therefore, Americans for Tax Reform (ATR) and the Center for Worker Freedom (CWF) urge members of Congress to support S.J. 8, which passed the Senate on March 4, 2015, and which would block the Board’s ambush election rule and preserve the privacy of workers and their families. Sincerely Grover Norquist Matt Patterson President, Americans for Tax Reform Executive Director, Center for Worker Freedom

Page 1: Ambush Election Block Support Letter

U.S. House of Representatives Washington D.C. March 16, 2015 The National Labor Relations Board’s (NLRB) “ambush election” rule, finalized in December 2014, is an outrageous assault on worker privacy.

The rule is designed to limit employers’ ability to adequately prepare for union elections and keep workers from gathering the facts they need to make informed decisions about unionization. It also exposes workers to intimidation from union bosses by requiring that business owners provide their employees’ personal information to union officials, including phone numbers and home addresses.

Therefore, Americans for Tax Reform (ATR) and the Center for Worker Freedom (CWF) urge members of Congress to support S.J. 8, which passed the Senate on March 4, 2015, and which would block the Board’s ambush election rule and preserve the privacy of workers and their families.

Sincerely

Grover Norquist Matt Patterson

President, Americans for Tax Reform Executive Director, Center for Worker Freedom
