PETITION: Tell Your Representative to Pass the Protect America’s Workforce Act

Did you hear the good news? The U.S. House of Representatives could soon vote on a bill to undo the largest single union-busting action ever, restoring union protections to 1 million federal workers.

Email your representative today and ask them to vote YES on the bipartisan Protect America’s Workforce Act.

Introduced by Reps. Jared Golden (D-Maine) and Brian Fitzpatrick (R-Pennsylvania), this bipartisan bill would undo an executive order from March that stripped collective bargaining rights from most federal workers. Thousands of federal workers — including our OPEIU siblings at the Department of Energy in Tennessee — faced layoffs, reassignment and other workplace mistreatment while being denied the protections of their union.

Make sure your representative steps up to the plate for working people.

OPEIU Statement on the Supreme Court’s Denial of Motion in SpaceX v. NLRB to Protect Workers’ Rights and the NLRB’s Authority

The Office and Professional Employees International Union (OPEIU) is extremely disappointed in the Supreme Court’s refusal to review a 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeal’s decision in the SpaceX v. NLRB case. With this, the court has denied OPEIU the ability to defend the National Labor Relations Board’s (NLRB’s) authority and to protect workers’ ability to seek justice for labor law violations with the agency.
 
One by one, the rights of working people are being stripped away and agencies set up to enforce labor law for all are refusing to hold employers accountable when those rights are violated. OPEIU members were counting on the Supreme Court to stand up for the NLRB and its authority, but once again, the rights of workers are taking a back seat to the rights of greedy union-busting employers like Elon Musk. 
 
While disappointed, we are not discouraged. OPEIU will keep fighting to protect its members and defend the rights of all working people. We won’t back down in our efforts to ensure workers’ rights continue to be vindicated by the NLRB.
