Sign the petition Pelosi fears

From Senator Rand Paul and The National Right To Work Committee:

Below is a petition I've had prepared for you to your Senators and Congressman, the Speaker of the House and the Senate Majority Leader.

It's crucial you sign it at once.

You see, President Donald Trump has pledged to support passage of a National Right to Work act –- and promised to sign it into law if you and I can get it to his desk.

Without a doubt, this is our best opportunity EVER to pass a National Right to Work law to end forced unionism in America.

A National Right to Work law would ultimately end forced unionism nationwide by removing the sections of federal labor laws that allow union bosses to force workers to join a union just to get or keep a job.

So please sign your petition and include your most generous contribution to launch the next, crucial phase for ultimate passage of a National Right to Work law immediately.

You see, the union bosses, Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi and their allies are going to use every trick in the book to kill a National Right to Work bill -- and they will try to do it as quietly as possible.

The union kingpins (and their water-carriers in Congress) can't afford the consequences of having their coercive privileges publicly debated and voted on in Congress!

They don't want the American people to know that:

***Millions of workers are forced to surrender part of every paycheck to keep their jobs.

This cash funds violent "organizing" drives, provides a limousine lifestyle for union bigwigs, and bankrolls radical, Tax-and-Spend politicians like Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi.

***Big Labor's power is deadly to millions of small businesses.

Big Labor politicians and Obama-stacked bureaucracies have been strangling small businesses with confiscatory taxes, destructive laws and straitjacket regulations.

***Forced Unionism exports millions of good jobs overseas.

Productivity-killing work rules, workplace class warfare, slowdowns, "sick-outs" and strikes all have taken their crippling toll, closing the doors of many businesses -- for good.

***Billions of forced-dues dollars bankroll radical Tax-and-Spend politicians like Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi, resulting in out-of-control spending and skyrocketing taxes.

That's why it's vital you sign your petition to demonstrate to Congress and the national media the strong support for Right to Work.

Of course, Big Labor allies in Congress may choose to obey the union bosses rather than the majority of their constituents.

That's their choice.

But time and again, when politicians defy the public and vote for forced unionism, they've paid the price with the end of their political careers!

So -- by all means -- let's have another vote and see which politicians want to end their careers in the next election.

That's why your signed petition and financial support are so important.

It's all part of the National Right to Work Committee's four-part plan to pass a National Right to Work law:

•Run TV, radio and newspaper ads targeting swing votes in key states and districts;

•Contact directly by mail and email up to 10 million supporters to urge them to demand their Senators and Congressmen vote for the National Right to Work Act;

•Brief personally the hundreds of favorable columnists, radio talk show hosts, editorial writers and bloggers nationwide who can help mobilize public opinion; and

•Crank up massive, paid phone banks in the days before the vote to really make Congress feel the heat.

Of course, this whole effort will be very expensive.

An all-out media and direct-mail blitz to mobilize massive public pressure on Congress will be the key to our success.

So, to pay for the expensive ads, mailings, phone banks and other efforts, it's vital you give a special contribution to the National Right to Work Committee today.

Will you make a generous contribution of $500, $250, $100, $50, $25 or $10 to launch the next, crucial phase for ultimate passage of a National Right to Work law?

The National Right to Work Committee has successfully beat back Big Labor's forced-dues machine for decades.

And now it's critical the Right to Work Committee have your financial support right away to put politicians' feet to the fire to bring the National Right to Work Act up for a vote.

It would be a crime to let politicians who support compulsory unionism off the hook.

Up against the forced-dues-fed, billion-dollar might of Big Labor, all you and I have on our side is truth and public opinion.

Together with the National Right to Work Committee you can make the difference.

Unlike Big Labor, the National Right to Work Committee doesn't have (or want) the power to force anyone to pay dues.

So it has to depend on the generosity of folks like you.

Some folks have already given $250, $500 and even more. For others, a contribution of $25 or $50 has been as much as they could afford.

Whatever you can do, sign your petition and include your most generous contribution.

Please don't make it easy for Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi and Big Labor to destroy the National Right to Work bill.

Without your contribution of $500, $250, $100, $50, $25 or $10, the National Right to Work Committee won't be able to contact 10 million Americans, place the advertising, or staff phone banks to put Big Labor on the spot.

I believe it's vital we force roll-call votes in this Congress.

It's time to put Big Labor on the defensive. Without your help, the union bosses win by default.

Please act today.

Sincerely,

Rand Paul, M.D.
United States Senator

P.S. Since nearly 80% of Americans oppose Big Labor's forced-unionism powers, a public debate and vote on a National Right to Work law is Big Labor's (and its water-carriers' in Congress) worst nightmare!

Force Congress to hold an up and down vote concerning the National Right To Work Act

From The National Right To Work Committee:

Now is the time to expose Big Labor's allies in Congress.

With the 2016 Elections right around the corner, the time has never been better to put every member of Congress on record for or against compulsory unionism with a roll-call vote on the National Right to Work Act (S. 391/H.R. 612).

And thanks to you, the pressure is building. Already, 154 members of Congress have cosponsored the Right to Work Act.

But there is more to do!

That's why it's vital you sign your petition, urging Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, House Speaker Paul Ryan, and your Congressman and Senators to cosponsor and seek roll-call votes on the National Right to Work Act TODAY.

As you read this, 11 million Americans are forced to pay union dues or face losing their jobs.

And nearly 80% of Americans agree that's just plain wrong.

A National Right to Work law would free hardworking Americans from the chains of forced-unionism -- and stop the union bosses' forced-dues gravy train.

This federally provided special privilege has not only allowed union bosses across the country to enjoy fat-cat limousine lifestyles, but it has also shored up piles of cash for Big Labor to funnel into the campaign coffers of their handpicked politicians -- nearly two BILLION dollars -- every election year.

Keeping their allegiance to Big Labor secret, throngs of politicians head back to Washington again and again to protect and expand the union bosses' forced-dues privileges.

And the cycle will not end . . .

Unless you and I expose them!

The good news is, that's exactly what a vote on the National Right to Work Act would do.

The fact is, union bosses know a vote on the Right to Work Act could mean real trouble for their favorite Big Labor politicians this year.

So to keep their pet politicians off the record on Right to Work, Big Labor is determined to stop any and all public debate on the National Right to Work Act.

But you and I have the one thing the union bosses don't -- massive support from the American people.

History has shown time and time again that when there is a high-profile vote on forced-unionism, politicians who kowtow to Big Labor go down in flames at the ballot box.

So putting Big Labor's allies on record could be the final nail in their political coffins on Election Day.

But your IMMEDIATE action is critical to forcing the vote.

So please sign your petition, urging Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, House Speaker Paul Ryan, any your Congressman and Senators to cosponsor and seek roll-call votes on the National Right to Work Act today.

You and I both know, in politics, nothing moves unless it's pushed.

And since Big Labor's allies will do just about anything to stay off the record, it's vital you and I push HARD.

It's up to you and me to hold Congress' feet to the fire.

So please sign your petition IMMEDIATELY to:

*** Your Congressman and Senators, demanding they cosponsor the National Right to Work Act immediately;

*** Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, insisting he schedule a floor vote on this crucial legislation; and

*** Speaker of the House Paul Ryan, urging him to bring the National Right to Work Act to the House floor for a vote at once.

And if at all possible, please donate a generous contribution of $50, $25, $10 or 10 to help your Committee mobilize tens of thousands of Right to Work supporters across the country to pressure Congress to hold votes on the National Right to Work Act NOW, so politicians can be held accountable.

In this crucial election year, it is up to you and me to put Congress on record for or against forcing workers to pay union dues and fees just to earn a living.

So please act TODAY!

Sincerely,

Mark Mix
President, National Right to Work

P.S. Time and time, again history has shown that when politicians are forced to take a stand on the compulsory unionism issue, forced-dues partisans go down in flames at the ballot box.

Now, with the 2016 Elections fast approaching, it's vital every member of Congress is put on the record with roll-call votes on the National Right to Work Act.

So, to turn up the heat on Congress to hold roll-call votes before the crucial November Elections, please sign the petition and consider your most generous contribution TODAY.

Make Congress hold a public,roll call vote on the National Right To Work Act

From The National Right To Work Committee:

Don't let this opportunity slip away.

As letters, postcards, phone calls, emails and petitions from Right to Work supporters like you continue to pour in on Capitol Hill, the number of Congressmen and Senators signing on as cosponsors of the National Right to Work Act continues to grow.

So now it's time to take the next step and urge the U.S. House and Senate Leadership to schedule public, roll-call votes on our bill.

With strong support in Congress -- and the fact that nearly eight out of ten Americans believe it's just plain wrong to force workers to join or pay dues to a labor union as a condition of employment -- bringing up the National Right to Work Act for a vote should be an easy decision.

But as I'm sure you know, in Washington, nothing moves unless it's pushed.

That's why it's vital you sign your petition to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and Speaker of the House Paul Ryan, urging them to schedule roll-call votes on the National Right to Work Act (S. 391/H.R. 612).

The fact is, Big Labor's stranglehold on workers has dire consequences for all Americans:

*** Millions of working Americans are forced to pay union dues out of every paycheck -– diverting to union bosses money that could go to workers' families or be saved for their future.

*** Forced-unionism is a dead weight on key parts of the American economy.

Productivity-killing work rules, a hate-the-boss mentality, slowdowns and strikes all take their crippling toll on our already struggling economy, closing down companies here and sending good jobs overseas.

***Big Labor's forced-dues treasury is pure poison to our political system.

Union political operatives use forced-dues dollars to fund a massive political machine that reaches into Congress, every state house, most city halls, police stations, firehouses and school districts across the country -- resulting in skyrocketing government spending and soaring taxes.

***Union toughs terrorize workers and communities with violent strikes -- where they get away with beatings, arson -- even murder.

A national Right to Work law would put an end to these outrages and strip from Big Labor the power to force workers to pay dues and fees just to keep a job -- a power union bosses should never have been granted in the first place.

And just getting a vote is a win/win scenario for opponents of forced-unionism.

You see, every time in the last 40 years Congress has had to take a public stand on whether or not workers should be forced to pay tribute to a union boss to earn a living and feed their families, politicians who kowtowed to Big Labor have gone down in flames at the ballot box.

Today, with the November Elections on the horizon, you and I have a tremendous opportunity to expose Big Labor's pet politicians and hold them accountable.

But, roll-call votes are key.

That's why it's crucial you sign your petition to Majority Leader McConnell and Speaker Ryan, urging them to hold votes on the National Right to Work Act at once.

History has shown that convincing Congress to take action will take a tidal wave of pressure from Americans across the country.

So, if at all possible, along with your signed petition, please chip in $10 or $25 to help the Committee mobilize tens of thousands of Right to Work supporters nationwide to urge leadership to hold roll-call votes on the National Right to Work Act.

In this crucial election year, it is up to you and me to put Congress on record for or against compulsory unionism.

Please act TODAY!

Sincerely,

Mark Mix
President, National Right to Work

P.S. As support for the National Right to Work Act continues to surge in Congress, now is the time to insist Congressional Leadership schedules public, roll-call votes on our bill.

That's why it's vital you click here and sign your petition to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and Speaker of the House Paul Ryan at once.

And along with your signed petitions, please chip in $10 or $25 to help mobilize opponents of forced-unionism nationwide to pressure Congress to vote on this crucial legislation.

Support the National Right To Work Act

From The National Right To Work Committee:

The 2016 Presidential Election campaigns are at full stride, and the start of the Congressional races is not far behind.

Airwaves will resound with politicians and talking heads, expounding on what ails our country.

But there is one issue they all too often fail to mention -- a policy that holds back our economy, corrupts our political system and punishes working Americans just trying to live out the American dream . . .

. . . Compulsory Unionism.

You see, in 1935, politicians in Washington, D.C. bestowed on Big Labor the raw power to compel working men and women to pay tribute to a union boss just to work and feed their families.

And the injustice doesn’t stop there.

Union officials use this forced-dues treasure chest to bankroll the election and re-election of their pet politicians, who in turn vote with the union bosses at the expense of rank-and-file workers and the businesses that employ them.

Now, going into next year’s elections, it’s time you and I make forced unionism an issue the politicians dare not ignore.

That’s why I hope you’ll sign the petition I've prepared for you to your Congressman and Senators at once.

The fact is, the cost of federally imposed forced unionism to working men and women, small businesses, taxpayers and all Americans is enormous:

***Millions of working Americans are forced to pay union dues out of every paycheck -- giving union bosses money that could go to workers’ families or be saved for their future.

***Big Labor’s forced-unionism power is deadly to millions of small businesses. Union-label politicians and Obama-stacked bureaucracies strangle businesses with confiscatory taxes, straitjacket regulations and destructive laws, damaging our economy and driving good jobs overseas -- or out of existence.

***Union bosses pump hundreds of millions of dollars into the coffers of handpicked, radical Tax-and-Spend politicians like Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.

***Bitter strikes shut down businesses and destroy jobs, while union militants foment “hate-the-boss” propaganda and wield brickbats against anyone who gets in their way -- workers, their families, even innocent bystanders.

The good news is, a National Right to Work law, when ultimately passed, will end Big Labor’s stranglehold on American workers, businesses and the economy.

And just getting a vote is a win/win scenario for opponents of forced unionism.

You see, poll after poll confirms that nearly 80% of Americans believe compulsory unionism is just plain wrong.

A public, roll-call vote will put every member of Congress on record for or against forcing workers to pay dues and fees just to get or keep their jobs.

Then, the true loyalties of Big Labor’s pet politicians will be laid bare for all to see, and the voters will hold them accountable.

The fact is, every time there has been a high-profile vote on compulsory unionism, forced-dues advocates have gone down in flames when faced with re-election.

That’s why it’s vital you sign the petition to your U.S. Congressman, Senators, Speaker of the House John Boehner and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, urging them to cosponsor and seek roll-call votes on the National Right to Work Act (S. 391/H.R. 612).

This one-page Bill does not add a single word to existing federal law. It simply repeals those sections that grant Big Labor the power to force working Americans to pay dues and fees as a condition of employment.

And a National Right to Work law would strike at the heart of Big Labor’s power -- coercion.

Over the years, well-intentioned efforts have been made to curtail the union bosses’ forced-dues power, but these efforts have been like a terrier nipping at an elephant.

Only a National Right to Work law will put a stake in the heart of Big Labor’s compulsory unionism leviathan and the devastation it begets . . .

. . . The out-of-control spending, soaring taxes and skyrocketing debt coupled with closed plants, foreclosed homes and dwindling opportunities.

All while union bigwigs enjoy a champagne, caviar and limousine lifestyle with booty stripped from workers forced to turn over their hard-earned wages.

That’s why it’s so important you and I not give politicians a pass on this crucial issue.

And why it’s vital you sign the petition I've prepared for you, demanding that your Congressman and Senators cosponsor and seek roll-call votes on the National Right to Work Act at once.

With BILLIONS of forced-dues dollars and tremendous political power at stake, you can be sure Big Labor and their Washington, D.C. allies will do everything they can to kill our Bill quietly, without even a vote.

In fact, with presidential campaigning in full swing and Congressional campaigns to kick off soon, forced-dues apologists can’t afford a public debate focusing attention on the evils of compulsory unionism.

So it’s up to you and me to shine a spotlight on the scourge of Big Labor’s forced-unionism privileges by forcing a vote on the National Right to Work Act.

But we can’t do it alone.

It will take the heat from throngs of Americans, demanding an end to the blight of forced unionism, to propel action on Capitol Hill.

That’s why, along with your petitions, I hope you’ll include a generous contribution of $30 to help rally opponents of forced unionism nationwide to join the battle to recruit cosponsors and force roll-call votes on the National Right to Work Act.

If $30 is just too much for you to spare right now, please consider $.00 or $20.

Now is the time for opponents of forced unionism to unmask Big Labor’s crony politicians and hold them accountable.

So please sign the enclosed petitions and return them along with your most generous contribution of $30, $20, or at least $.00 at once.

Sincerely,

Mark Mix

P.S. Big Labor’s forced-dues power holds back our economy, corrupts our political system and subjugates Americans to union boss tyranny.

That’s why it’s vital you sign and return the enclosed petitions to your Congressman, Senators, Speaker Boehner and Majority Leader McConnell today, urging them to cosponsor and hold roll-call votes on the National Right to Work Act at once.

And along with your signed petitions, please include a generous contribution of $30, $20, or $.00 to mobilize Americans across the country to demand an end to the national scourge of compulsory unionism.

Tell the incoming Speaker to oppose forced unionism

From The National Right To Work Committee:

With the U.S. House about to elect a new Speaker, you and I have a real opportunity.

The next Speaker, whoever it turns out to be, is going to want to find a way to make his mark.

And you and I know the American people want to tear down the corrupt political system that enriches union label politicians and their cronies.

The next Speaker could make real progress in that direction, by bringing the National Right to Work Act to the House floor for a vote.

This simple one page bill does not add a single word to federal law, it merely removes the federal provisions allowing union bosses to claw money out of workers' paychecks to fund Big Government politicians and their pet causes.

That's why I'm planning an all-out Banner Blitz designed to flood conservative news and blog sites with these banner ads:

A Banner Blitz will generate a tidal wave of support for the National Right to Work Act -- and Right to Work will be the first thing on the mind of the new Speaker as he prepares to take leadership.

We'll run ads on sites like:

DrudgeReport
National Review
Weekly Standard
Breitbart
Newsmax

...and even more depending on the budget we're able to raise.

But the first vote for a new Speaker has been scheduled for next Thursday, October 8th.

And I'd like to be ready to launch this blitz as soon as that vote happens.

So in order to run this program and continue to push for a vote and ultimately pass the National Right to Work Act, you and I need to raise $50,000 in the next week.

That's why I've set a deadline of Wednesday, October 7th and I need your help to hit our goal before then.

Will you help us Blitz the New Speaker by chipping in just $10 or $20 today?

The truth is a change in leadership couldn't have come at a better time.

As I write this email, the union bosses are pulling their hair out -- and for good reason.

You see, the National Right to Work Act (S. 391/H.R. 612) is gaining momentum with 120 members cosponsoring the Bill so far.

And there's little union officials fear more than a very public debate and a very public vote on this important piece of legislation.

After all, over 3 out of every 4 Americans think forcing workers to pay dues and fees as a condition of employment is just plain wrong.

So you can be sure the forced-unionism-loving union brass and their political allies on Capitol Hill are going to be pressuring any new Speaker.

So you and I need to make it clear:

Ignoring the will of the American people will be bad for their careers.

That's why it's essential you and I raise the full $50,000 needed to run our digital Banner Blitz, mobilizing grassroots Americans to action.

The more money you and I raise, the more pressure we can create.

So will you help raise $50,000 by Wednesday, October 7th?

Will you chip in just $10 or $20 to make this Banner Blitz happen?

The fact is, as you read this email, more than 11 million American workers are forced to pay union dues or be fired.

And these workers cough up almost $10 billion a year in union dues -- money union bigwigs funnel into the campaign coffers of their political protectors in Washington.

But, of course, a National Right to Work law, when ultimately passed, will repeal the federally granted power Big Labor has to force workers to pay dues and fees as a condition of employment -- and strip from the union bosses a portion of their political clout.

So, there's no question about it. The union bosses and their forced-dues allies will go all-out to stop our Bill.

That's why your help is so important.

The fact is, voting to force workers to pay union dues as a condition of employment is political poison.

So pressuring the new House Speaker to give us a vote is of critical importance.

Politicians will be forced to either vote to free workers from the shackles of forced unionism or they can face the wrath of the American people when faced with re-election.

And just think of the price Big Labor's cohorts will pay once the American people learn that:

Big Labor's power is lethal to tens of thousands of small businesses.

Union-label politicians and bureaucrats strangle small businesses with confiscatory taxes, destructive laws and straitjacket regulations;

Forced unionism is a dead weight on key parts of the American economy.

Productivity-killing work rules, a hate-the-boss mentality, slowdowns and strikes all take their crippling toll on our economy;

Big Labor's forced-dues booty is pure poison to our political system.

Forced-dues dollars stripped from the pockets of hardworking men and women are funneled into the campaign coffers of Tax-and-Spend politicians like Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid; and

Union thugs terrorize workers into submission.

Threats, intimidation and even physical violence are all tools Big Labor has routinely used to force workers to pay union dues and keep quiet.

With new House leadership likely to be elected next week, you and I need to make sure the new Speaker hears from the overwhelming majority of Americans opposed to forced unionism.

But to be ready to launch immediately after their election, you and I must raise our $50,000 by Wednesday, October 7th.

So will you chip in just $10 or $20 to make this Banner Blitz happen?

It's vital you and I not allow the new Speaker to continue to block the National Right to Work Act from coming to the floor for public debate and vote.

So, please act today.

Sincerely,

Mark Mix

P.S. Ignoring the forced dues issue has tainted the legacy of House Speaker John Boehner and ultimately forced him to announce his resignation.

With new leadership likely to be elected next week, you and I need to make sure the new Speaker hears from the overwhelming majority of Americans opposed to forced unionism.

That's why I'm planning an all out Banner Blitz designed to flood conservative news and blog sites with this clear call to action.

We'll run on sites like DrudgeReport.com, NationalReview.com, and Breitbart.com and drive pro-Right to Work Americans to flood Congress with phone calls and emails.

But to be ready to launch immediately after their election, you and I must raise our $50,000 by Wednesday, October 7th.

So will you chip in just $10 or $20 to make this Banner Blitz happen?

House holds hearing on forced dues by labor unions

From The National Right To Work Committee:

Tomorrow morning at 10 a.m. the U.S. House will hold its FIRST ever "hearing" on the forced-unionism issue.

And Mark Mix, President of the National Right to Work Committee will be testifying.

The fact that you and I have pushed Right to Work to the forefront of American politics is reason for excitement. It shows the momentum is on our side, and opponents of forced-unionism are winning the day.

But it's also frightening, as you and I are entering dangerous territory.

That's why it's vital you sign your Emergency Right to Work petition to your U.S. Congressman.

I'll give you the link to sign in just a moment, but first let me tell you more about the danger you and I are facing -- and why your immediate action is needed.

You see, the Obama National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) -- stacked with Big Labor lawyers -- is gearing up to launch an all-out assault on state Right to Work laws.

Unable to stem the growing tide of opposition to forced-unionism with the passage of three new Right to Work laws in the last three years, the Obama-stacked Labor Board is intent on reversing 60 years of federal court precedent -- gutting all 25 state Right to Work laws by bureaucratic fiat.

If they succeed?

The results could be devastating, as potentially millions of non-union employees in Right to Work states will be forced to pay fees to a union boss despite state Right to Work law protections.

That's what the U.S. House will be discussing tomorrow -- Obama's NLRB attempt to gut Right to Work laws nationwide.

The truth is, Congress could solve the issue of forced-unionism through passage of the one-page National Right to Work Act.

That's why it's vital you act TODAY to turn up the heat on Congress by signing the Emergency Right to Work Petition to your U.S. Congressman.

The fact is, every time opponents of forced-unionism deal Big Labor and their handpicked, big government politicians a bruising defeat -- like Wisconsin becoming a Right to Work state -- you and I move one step closer to destroying their forced-dues-funded machine forever.

And losing the BILLIONS in forced-dues funneled into their election and re-election is what Barack Obama, Harry Reid and the rest of Big Labor's allies on Capitol Hill fear most.

So the union bosses and their pet politicians are relying on the Obama-stacked Labor Board to use its rule-making power to corral workers in Right to Work states back into the dues-paying fold.

Under NLRB precedents and federal court rulings, union bosses are prohibited from collecting dues or fees from workers in Right to Work states as a condition of employment.

And since 25 states have passed Right to Work laws, and passage of more state Right to Work laws is on the horizon, Big Labor, with the help of their allies on the NLRB, has cooked up a new scheme to recapture workers -- and the billions in forced-dues dollars they represent -- freed by state Right to Work laws.

On April 15, the compulsory unionism advocates on the NLRB took steps towards allowing union officials to force non-member workers in Right to Work states to pay fees for union contract grievance processing.

What makes this scheme so egregious is that workers ensnared in monopoly bargaining agreements are practically prohibited from dealing directly with their employers or hiring their own representation when they have an issue to be resolved.

The rules virtually force them to use the union-controlled grievance apparatus.

Now the NLRB plans to require workers to pay for this so-called service -- which workers are compelled to use .

And this so-called “grievance fee” can equal or exceed the amount of union dues.

Through this scheme, workers who have broken free from the shackles of compulsory unionism could be cast back into Big Labor's iron grip.

That's why it's crucial you sign the petition to your Congressman urging them to solve the issue of forced-unionism through passage of a National Right to Work Act.

But as the saying goes: Nothing moves unless it's pushed.

So please help your Committee get the wheels turning on the National Right to Work Act by signing your petition to your U.S. Congressman.

After you sign your petitions, please include your most generous contribution of $30, $20, $10 or whatever you can afford today to help the Committee rally Right to Work supporters nationwide.

Your generous contribution will help the Committee rally opponents of compulsory unionism across the country to end forced-unionism nationwide by passing the National Right to Work Act.

That's why your generous contribution of $30, $20 or $10 is so crucial.

Big Labor puppets on the NLRB have only one goal in mind: Destroy Right to Work.

And they think they've found a way.

I'm counting on you to help me stop them.

So please, sign your petition and chip in a contribution right away.

Thanks in advance for all you do.

For Worker Freedom,

Mark Mix

President

P.S. The Obama National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) -- stacked with Big Labor lawyers -- is gearing up to launch an all-out assault on state Right to Work laws.

Support the National Right To Work Act

From The National Right To Work Committee:

It's vital that you sign your petitions immediately.

Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, Barack Obama and the Big Labor bosses are about to go ballistic.

You see, the National Right to Work Act I've re-introduced to repeal forever Big Labor's power to force workers to pay union dues just to get or keep a job.

So the union lobbyists, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi and their allies are going to use every trick in the book to bury the National Right to Work Act.

And they want to do it as quietly as possible.

The union kingpins (and their water-carriers in Congress) can't afford the consequences of having their coercive privileges publicly debated and voted on in Congress!

They don't want the American people to know that:

***Millions of workers are forced to surrender part of every paycheck to keep their jobs.

This cash funds violent "organizing" drives, provides a limousine lifestyle for union bigwigs and bankrolls radical, tax-and-spend politicians like Barack Obama, Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi.

***Big Labor's power is deadly to millions of small businesses.

Big Labor politicians and Obama-stacked bureaucracies are strangling small businesses with confiscatory taxes, destructive laws and straitjacket regulations.

***Forced unionism exports millions of good jobs overseas.

Productivity-killing work rules, workplace class warfare, slowdowns, "sick-outs" and strikes have all taken their crippling toll, closing the doors of many businesses -- for good.

***Big Labor thugs often use their forced-unionism power to terrorize workers and communities with violent strikes, where they have gotten away with beatings, arson, extortion -- even murder!

In the fight for a National Right to Work law, opponents of forced unionism will face a showdown against the full might of Big Labor.

That's why it's vital that you act at once to ignite massive public support for a National Right to Work bill.

Now is the time to act.

By the time the Right to Work Act comes up for a vote, every member of Congress must realize the eyes of the American people will be watching.

National opinion polls show that nearly 80% of the American people think it's wrong to force workers to pay union dues under the threat of being fired if they don't pay!

And it's critical the National Right to Work Committee, who has led the fight against forced dues for over 50 years, has your help in demonstrating that to Congress.

If the public's attention is fixed on this battle, Congress will be forced to recognize -- or defy to their peril -- the massive public opposition to compulsory unionism.

Then we'll see who dares to stand with Big Labor . . .

. . . And who stands with freedom and the American people.

So please sign your petitions to Mitch McConnell, John Boehner, your Senators and Congressman immediately.

Your petitions will demonstrate to Congress and the national media the strong support for Right to Work.

It's all part of the National Right to Work Committee's five-part plan to pass a National Right to Work law:

•Run TV and radio ads targeting swing votes in key states and districts.

•Place full-page newspaper ads coast-to-coast, explaining to the American people what's at stake.

•Contact directly by mail up to 10 million supporters urging them to demand their Senators and Congressmen vote for the National Right to Work Act.

•Brief personally the hundreds of favorable columnists, radio talk show hosts and editorial writers nationwide who can help mobilize public opinion.

•Crank up massive phone banks in the days before the vote to really make Congress feel the heat.

It's critical in this battle that Congress hears loud and clear from the nearly 80% of Americans who support Right to Work.

Of course, Congress may choose to obey Big Labor bosses rather than the majority of their constituents. That's their choice.

But time and again, when politicians defied the public and voted for forced unionism, they've paid the price with the end of their political careers!

Of course, this whole effort will be very expensive.

An all-out media and direct-mail blitz to mobilize massive public pressure on Congress will be the key to success.

To pay for the expensive ads, mailings, phone banks and other efforts, it's urgent you send a special contribution to the National Right to Work Committee today.

Will you make a generous contribution of $100, $50, $25 or $10 to launch the next crucial phase for ultimate passage of a National Right to Work law?

It's vital you act immediately to put the politicians' feet to the fire to bring the National Right to Work Act up for a vote.

It would be a crime to let politicians who support compulsory unionism off the hook.

Up against the forced-dues fed, billion-dollar might of Big Labor, all the Committee has on their side is truth, public opinion . . .

. . . And you!

Unlike Big Labor, the National Right to Work Committee doesn't have (or want) the power to force anyone to pay dues.

So it has to depend on generous folks like you.

Please don't make it easy for Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Barack Obama and Big Labor to bury the National Right to Work Act.

Some folks have already sent $500, $1,000 and even more. For others, a contribution of $10 or $20 has been as much as they could afford.

Please sign your petitions so we can demonstrate to Congress and the media the strong support for Right to Work.

Without your contribution of $100, $50, $25 or $10, the National Right to Work Committee won't be able to contact 10 million Americans, place the advertising, staff phone banks or do anything else to put Big Labor on the spot with a public vote on the National Right to Work Act.

And if you and I don't press forward now, we may never have a chance like this again.

Please help today.

Be sure to sign your petitions to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, House Speaker John Boehner, your Senators and Congressman.

And after you sign, please consider a generous contribution of $100, $50, $25 or $10 to the National Right to Work Committee.

Sincerely,

Rand Paul
United States Senator

P.S.Since most Americans oppose Big Labor's forced-unionism powers, a public debate on a National Right to Work law is Big Labor's (and their water-carriers' in Congress) worst nightmare!

So please, sign your petitions to Congress.

And after you sign, please consider your most generous contribution of $100, $50, $25 or $10 to the National Right to Work Committee today.

Stop the unions from stealing from workers

From The National Right To Work Committee:

I have huge news!

Senator Rand Paul just reintroduced the National Right to Work Act (S. 391) to END forced-union dues in America once and for all!

As you know, Harry Reid spent the last 8 years using his power as Senate Majority Leader to stonewall you and me on the National Right to Work Act at virtually every turn.

And he paid the price when the American people rejected his forced-dues agenda and FIRED him as Majority Leader.

Now you and I have the largest Right to Work numbers in Congressional history!

This is the greatest opportunity to get a vote on the National Right to Work Act in nearly a decade.

Will you be a part of history and join Senator Rand Paul by signing your petition?

Your signature on the petition to your Congressman and Senators is what's needed to bust through the opposition and force a vote on the National Right to Work Act.

If you've already signed your petition, please forward this to as many friends and family members as you can RIGHT AWAY.

With control of the White House up for grabs in less than two short years, it's crucial that you and I do everything in our power to strike at Big Labor's multi-BILLION dollar forced-dues warchest.

So please sign your National Right to Work Petition immediately.

I know Senator Paul will be thrilled to see the tidal wave of grassroots support from supporters like you willing to stand with him in the fight for worker freedom.

Oppose forced unionism

From The National Right To Work Committee:

The November mid-term elections are fast approaching.

And Big Labor’s go-to-guy -- Harry Reid -- is faced with the threat of losing his majority in the U.S. Senate.

So you can be sure the union bosses are pulling out all the stops.

In the fight for a National Right to Work law, opponents of forced unionism will face a showdown against the full might of Big Labor.

The stakes for this year couldn’t be higher.

That's why it’s vital that you act at once to ignite massive public support for a National Right to Work bill.

That's why the Committee is launching our "Election Year TV Ad Vote Blitz" with the goal of raising $100,000 by Thursday, July 24.

And a generous supporter of Right to Work has agreed to help us get there by matching all first-time contributions dollar for dollar.

I'll give you the link to donate to this critical effort in just a moment.

But first let me explain why RIGHT NOW is the best time to turn up the heat on Congress to force a vote on a National Right to Work Act.

You see, the November 2014 mid-term elections are rapidly approaching.

And there are a number of Big Labor-appeasing Senators -- many from staunchly pro-Right to Work states -- who are faced with tough re-elections.

During the upcoming August recess, these vulnerable incumbent Senators will be busy crisscrossing their state in an effort to win support from their constituents.

As you know, politicians listen most closely to the folks back home when they are out campaigning for votes -- instead of sitting safely in Washington.

That's why -- RIGHT NOW -- is the time when you and I must mobilize the nearly 80% of Americans who support Right to Work to DEMAND their elected officials vote on the National Right to Work Act.

And your Committee is preparing to launch a state-of-the-art grassroots mobilization program designed to do just that.

In fact, my staff is putting the finishing touches on one of the sample TV ads we'd like to run in target states. I'll send you the link to watch the ad as soon as it's finished.

These hard-hitting ads will shine the light of public opinion on fence-sitting Senators.

Just by mobilizing Americans on Right to Work, we can bring the forced-unionism issue to the forefront of the people's minds, and that in itself will increase the effectiveness of our 2014 election year voter education and mobilization program as we approach the November elections.

Of course, the Committee cannot do any of this without your generous financial support.

That's why for this battle to succeed it's vital that you make a generous contribution to our "Election Year TV Ad Vote Blitz" IMMEDIATELY.

And remember, your generous contribution will be matched dollar for dollar.

So, if you give a gift of $10, you'll actually be giving $20! If you can sacrifice $25, your generous contribution will equal out to $50!

This support will allow us to have a roll-call vote on a National Right to Work Act.

The last thing Big Labor is counting on is a public, roll-call vote on a National Right to Work Act.

The one-page National Right to Work Act doesn’t add a single word to federal law. It simply strikes those sections that grant Big Labor’s compulsory unionism privileges.

And a roll-call vote right now will put each and every one of Big Labor’s forced dues allies in the U.S. Senate on record in time for the November elections.

With nearly 75% of the American people opposed to forced unionism, just getting a vote is a win/win situation for Right to Work supporters.

You see, every time in the past fifty years when there has been a public, roll-call vote in Congress on whether or not workers should be forced to pay union dues as a condition of employment, Big Labor's puppets have gone down in flames at the ballot box.

For example, in the 1994 elections, 33 members of Congress were tossed out of office by their constituents after voting for Ted Kennedy's Pushbutton Strike Bill -- which would have given union bosses new strike powers to force workers to pay union dues.

And after the 2010 “Card Check” battle, Big Labor politicians were defeated in 11 of the 17 targeted Senate districts and 40 of the 49 targeted House districts.

And staunch Right to Work heroes like Senator Rand Paul, who is leading the charge on our Right to Work bill, were swept into office.

So the politicians in the U.S. Congress will face a choice:

Vote to free America’s workers from the shackles of forced unionism –- or answer to angry voters in November.

Of course, taking on the full might of Big Labor in 2014 won't be easy and you and I have our work cut out for us.

But at this critical juncture in American history, it’s vital you and I seize this opportunity to expose Big Labor's allies in Congress.

That's why it’s vital that you agree to make a generous contribution TODAY

And because a generous supporter has agreed to match your donation, your contribution will doubled!

The fact is, the groundswell for the National Right to Work Act has been building as Right to Work supporters across the country sent petitions, postcards, letters and emails to their Senators and Congressmen, urging action on the Right to Work bill.

But there is still much more to be done.

The Committee must mobilize even more Americans through carefully targeted mailings, emails and phone calls to build pressure on waffling Senators as the vote draws near.

And, in the days leading up to the vote, the Committee also plans to run targeted TV ads in key Senate districts across the country.

These hard-hitting ads will shine the light of public opinion on fence-sitting Senators.

Just by mobilizing Americans on Right to Work, we can bring the forced-unionism issue to the forefront of the people's minds, and that in itself will increase the effectiveness of our 2014 election year voter education and mobilization program as we approach the November elections.

Of course, the Committee cannot do any of this without your generous financial support.

I must tell you that the success of this effort is based solely on the support of folks like you.

That’s why I hope you'll agree to give your maximum possible contribution -- $25, if possible today.



If $25 is simply too much to ask, then I hope you'll consider a contribution of $15 or $5.

I'm afraid if I don't receive an immediate influx of financial support, I won't be able to implement this aggressive plan to force a vote on a National Right to Work Act.

Please don't wait to give your contribution.

The Committee must have your donation by July 24 in order to properly budget expenses for the fight.

If that doesn't happen, then Big Labor’s forced-dues BILLIONS may derail our National Right to Work Act without so much as a vote.

That’s why it’s vital you chip in your most generous contribution of $25, $15 or $5 today.

And remember, thanks to a generous supporter of Right to Work, your generous contribution will be matched dollar for dollar.

Thank you in advance for your most generous support.

Sincerely,

Mark Mix

P.S. Since most Americans oppose Big Labor’s forced-unionism powers, a public debate on a National Right to Work law is Big Labor’s (and their water-carriers’ in Congress) worst nightmare!

And there's no better time than RIGHT NOW to turn up the heat on Congress.

That's why the Committee is launching our "Election Year TV Ad Vote Blitz" with the goal of raising $100,000 by Thursday, July 24.

So please chip in your most generous contribution of $25, $15 or $5 today.

And because a generous supporter has agreed to match your donation, your contribution will doubled!

Petition Congress to support the National Right To Work Act

From Rand2016:

Earlier today I introduced the National Right to Work Act as an amendment.

And a vote could come at any moment.

That's why I'm counting on your immediate action to help me turn up the pressure on my colleagues to force a vote on this crucial amendment.

You see, with control of Congress up for grabs this November, you and I need to get every member of the Senate on the record.

Ray, I couldn't imagine any Senator heading home to meet the voters and trying to explain why they voted against an amendment supported by nearly 80% of the American people.

So I hope you'll sign your emergency "End Forced Unionism" emergency fax petition right away.

This amendment is our best chance to halt forced union dues being used to elect tax-and-spend politicians like Barack Obama, Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi.

But it's going to take a flood of grassroots support to force an on-the-record vote on my amendment.

Your action has made the difference before.

In fights to stop the national gun registry and President Obama's march to war in Syria, your action turned the tide when all the so-called "experts" claimed victory was beyond our reach.

A vote could come at any moment so please take action immediately by signing your "End Forced Unionism" emergency fax petition immediately.

In Liberty,

Senator Rand Paul (R - Kentucky)

P.S. Earlier today I introduced the National Right to Work Act as an amendment.

A vote could come at any time so I hope I can count on you to sign your "End Forced Unionism" Emergency fax petition immediately.

After you sign your petition, please chip in a contribution so I can continue to lead the fight in the Senate for worker freedom.

Force an up and down vote on the National Right To Work Act

From the National Right to Work Committee:

Big Labor desperately wants to stop a vote at all costs.

In recent months, your emails, petitions, and postcards have flooded Capitol Hill offices, increasing the numbers of cosponsors on the National Right to Work Act, which has been reintroduced in the Senate as an amendment to another bill this week.

Senator Mitch McConnell was on the Senate Floor this morning calling for a vote, but union-label Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid is going all-out to block the vote, so we need to turn up the heat.

Please call your U.S. Senators at once and urge to cast every vote in favor of the National Right to Work Act.

The National Right to Work Act gives every Senator the opportunity -- and the obligation -- to fight to restore to American workers the freedom to work free from union coercion. That freedom should never have been stripped from them in the first place. .

But you can bet the Big Labor hierarchy is putting tremendous pressure on every Senator to protect their power.

That's why it's vital you call your U.S. Senators right away, and urge them to vote for the National Right to Work Act on all votes.

Contact your Senators

You see, just getting a vote would be an enormous win/win situation for Right to Work supporters.

Poll after poll shows that 80 percent of Americans support the Right to Work principle.

So if Big Labor's allies in the Senate want to KILL our National Right to Work Act, they'll face the wrath of the voters when they are up for reelection.

Your help has been critical as we've built momentum for our cause.

Now in this critical moment, I need your help again.

And after calling your Senators, please consider chipping in with a contribution of $10 or more to help your National Right to Work Committee keep up the fight against Big Labor.

But most importantly, please call your Senators at once.

Please act right away. There's not a moment to lose.

Sincerely,

Mark Mix

P.S. Rand Paul and Mitch McConnell are making a major push to get a vote on Right to Work on the Senate floor!

It's vital you call your U.S. Senators at once and urge to cast every vote in favor of the National Right to Work Act.

Support The Right To Work Act

From the National Right To Work Committee:

Please complete and return your 2014 Membership Ballot immediately.

It's vital that you do so at once.

Every year, the National Right to Work Committee surveys our members to ask which of our ongoing efforts is most important to you.

But this year, your response has never been more important!

With the 2014 mid-term elections right around the corner, it is vital I know how you want me to order the Committee's priorities.

You see, this year the Committee will be devoting extensive resources to our education and mobilization program in key states and districts to let the American people know which politicians support Right to Work and which politicians support compulsory unionism.

Of course, you and I both know Big Labor will do everything in their power to keep the Committee from informing folks about their radical, forced-dues agenda.

And for decades, one of their favorite weapons has been to use their allies at the Federal Election Commission (FEC) -- and similar bureaucracies at the state level -- to harass us with wasteful subpoenas demanding we prove we have members or that our education programs are "legal."

That's why it's vital you sign your 2014 Membership Ballot IMMEDIATELY.

When I last wrote you about the FEC's continuing harassment of the Committee, your response was overwhelming: "FIGHT ON!"

But with union boss puppets still calling the shots in virtually every federal agency, FEC bureaucrats aren't backing down.

That's why your IMMEDIATE action is so critical.

As you know, union boss water-carriers at the FEC have time and again buried your Right to Work Committee under a mountain of harassing subpoenas with the ultimate goal of stopping you and me from informing Americans which politicians support Right to Work and which ones kowtow to the union bosses.

In fact, Big Labor's cronies at the FEC have concocted rules which refuse to recognize that you are a "real" member of the National Right to Work Committee.

They have insisted that you aren't entitled to the same rights under the U.S. Constitution accorded to members of other organizations!

From what my attorneys tell me, the Committee's position will be stronger if as many members as possible certify each year that they currently consider themselves to be members of the National Right to Work Committee.

In the past, the FEC bureaucracy has attacked the Committee for exposing corruption involving candidates for federal office and top-level union officials.

But today, with Big Labor cronies in control of the White House and federal bureaucracies, you can bet FEC bureaucrats will attempt even more brazen assaults on the Committee -- with no fear of sanction.

Just think of the IRS harassment of groups the President doesn't like back in 2012!

So your 2014 Membership Ballot -- demonstrating that we do have members -- may be essential to winning any legal challenge to our membership.

Returning your Membership Ballot is also very important for another reason.

You see, you and I face some tough decisions.

As I mentioned, my goal is to expand our federal and state programs as we move into 2014.

I would like you to help me determine what aspects of our programs on which to focus.

You can bet Big Labor will be firing on all cylinders to elect their radical, forced-dues candidates this November.

So, now is the time to put every member of Congress on record on the forced-unionism issue by forcing a roll-call vote in both houses of Congress on the National Right to Work Act (H.R. 946/S. 204).

A National Right to Work law would mean that no worker could be forced to join or pay dues to a labor union just to get or keep a job.

And just getting a roll-call vote would be a win/win scenario for Right to Work supporters.

After all, every time in the past five decades that Big Labor's pet politicians have been exposed to the nearly 75% of Americans who think forced unionism is just plain wrong, they have gone down in flames at the ballot box.

That's why I believe you and I must do everything we can to FORCE Congress to go on record for or against the National Right to Work Act.

But this fight won't be easy -- or cheap.

So I'm counting on your support, and your advice.

You see, in addition to battles in Congress, Right to Work supporters face some tough challenges and tremendous opportunities on the state level as well.

After Big Labor-dominated Michigan passed Right to Work in 2012, the union bosses were beside themselves. They vowed to overturn Right to Work.

The union elite hope that overturning Right to Work in Michigan will stall our momentum going forward in other states.

It's critical you and I not let that happen.

And Michigan isn't the only Right to Work state Big Labor is targeting. Indiana, Iowa and Harry Reid's home state of Nevada are in the crosshairs as well.

In addition to protecting Right to Work Laws in Michigan, Indiana, Iowa and Nevada, now is the time to use our momentum to extend Right to Work to other states like Montana, Maine and Kentucky, as well as in a host of other states where the political climate is ripe for freeing workers from the shackles of forced unionism.

The fact is, after years of hard work, both Indiana AND Michigan became Right to Work states in 2012 -- something that hasn't happened since 1954!

If two states deep in the heart of the union boss dominated Rust Belt can pass Right to Work, I'm confident other states can as well.

So, should I emphasize a federal campaign, concentrating on forcing a roll-call vote on the National Right to Work Act?

Or should protecting state Right to Work laws and going on the offense in states where it's possible to pass Right to Work be our top priority?

Or should the Committee try to fight both nationally and on the state level?

Now, I'm sure you agree that it's vital you and I do everything we can to put all members of Congress on record for or against forced unionism -- especially with the 2014 elections on the horizon.

So, if you think our federal legislative program should take priority, mark "FEDERAL LEGISLATION" on your Membership Ballot and return it to me today.

But before you do, give some thought to what's at stake in the state legislatures.

Shouldn't you and I strike while the iron is hot in states where it may be possible to pass Right to Work laws?

But we can't leave current Right to Work states undefended in order to gain new ones.

So should defending state Right to Work laws and working to end forced unionism in target states be a top priority?

If you think so, mark "STATE LEGISLATION" on your ballot.

I'm sure you can see why I'm torn . . .

. . . And why I'm writing to ask you for your advice -- and, I hope, for your increased financial support.

Unless we can generate a major influx of support at the beginning of this year, it's likely that I will be forced to cut back on both federal and state legislative programs.

This would be a tragedy.

Opportunities to go on the offense like this are rare, and you and I must take advantage of our recent gains while we have the chance.

In fact, the worst thing you and I could do is wait.

So can I count on you to make a contribution, equal to or even larger than $50?

I know that's a lot.

But in truth, I'm hoping you'll even consider doing more with a generous contribution of $100.

But even that might not be enough.

Without an immediate infusion of resources, I'm afraid we may miss out on a real opportunity to go on the offense and take the fight directly to the union bosses.

I know the current economic situation makes things tough, but with everything at stake, I hope you'll agree to make a contribution large enough for us to keep fighting in Congress and the state legislatures.

So, please consider sending a contribution of $50, $100 or whatever you can afford right away.

But whatever you can send, please send it right away so I'll know how to budget for the coming year.

And please sign your 2014 Membership Ballot right away with your advice on how to proceed in 2014.

The mid-term elections will soon be upon us, and the state battles are raging as I write. Your advice and support are critical.

Please act today. The Board of Directors and I anxiously await your reply.

Sincerely,

Mark Mix
President

Support the National Right to Work Act

From The National Right To Work Committee:

I want to talk to you about a problem that has:

1. Crippled America's competitive edge;

2. Forced countless companies overseas;

3. And polluted our political process for nearly half a century.

And my One Page Bill will reverse it all...

Click here to see the breaking video.

Watch it now before Big Labor shuts it down.

Sincerely,

Rand Paul
U.S. Senator (R-KY)
