An open letter to the U.S. House of Representatives
Vote NO on H.R. 4366
2 so far! Help us get to 5 signers!
I am writing today to urge you to vote against H.R. 4366, the “Save Local Business Act”.
This misnomer bill will protect giant corporations from the responsibility to bargain in good faith alongside their joint employers - such as a small franchisee - with their employees. It dramatically limits the definition of a joint employer so that, even though the giant corporation in the back room is calling the shots on terms and conditions of employment, it need not ever sit at the bargaining table, leaving the franchisee solely holding the ball on matters that its parent company controls. That is not good faith bargaining and is a rollback of workers’ fundamental rights under the National Labor Relations Act.
Please fight for America’s workers and do whatever possible to ensure this does not pass in the House.
