Presidential Race:* Positions on the Employee Free Choice Act

http://www.aflcio.org/issues/politics/issues_efca.cfm

Employee Free Choice Act

The best opportunity working people have to get ahead economically is by uniting to bargain with their employers for better wages and benefits - what the union movement calls "the union difference." But the current system for forming unions and bargaining is broken. The Employee Free Choice Act would level the playing field for workers and employers and help rebuild America's middle class.

Check out the presidential candidates' positions on the Employee Free Choice Act and the importance of unions.
