Kansas City Jobs with Justice and the Kansas City AFL-CIO, along with countless unions, community groups, activists and elected officials rallied on June 17 in support of the Employee Free Choice Act.
Almost 150 Jobs with Justice Activists and allies rallied in the parking lot of Home Depot to remind elected officials how critical the Employee Free Choice Act is to protecting the rights of workers and rebuilding our economy, and demand that corporate America STOP INTERFERING WITH WORKERS' RIGHTS TO FORM A UNION!
Home Depot was picked because Bernie Marcus, the founder of Home Depot, was responsible for organizing the high-dollar opposition to EFCA. Home Depot’s current CEO Frank Blake also has been an enthusiastic opponent. Back in October, Marcus called the Employee Free Choice Act the "demise of a civilization."
