VOTE NO ON PROP 32
Proposition 32, a measure on November's ballot, is the most anti-worker measure we've ever seen. It threatens our jobs, wages, retirement, contracts and more. In short, it silences union members while giving even more power to corporate special interests and CEO's to attack our rights.
Proposition 32 pretends it's about "stopping special interests" but that's a lie. Its millionaire anti-union backers don't care about reform. They don't care about our jobs. They certainly don't care about us. They care about their profits, and they'll do anything to get us out of the way.
Prop 32 was carefully written to weaken unions and silence workers. While the anti-union millionaires backing it say it's balanced, it's actually full of special exemptions for all sorts of corporations, Wall Street firms, billionaire CEO's, big insurance companies and SuperPACs. Not surprisingly, the very same corporate interests behind the measure all have their own exemptions in Prop 32.
Don't be fooled by their lies. The fact is, the measure's backers intentionally designed it to confuse voters in order to cover up their real agenda - to silence our voice and eliminate our union's ability to fight for things like jobs, good wages, workplace safety and retirement security.
This measure is the first blow of a one-two punch. If anti-union CEOs behind Prop 32 eliminate our voice, they'll waste no time cutting our jobs, wages and retirement to boost their own profits. Prop 32 is bad for our families, communities and the state's middle class. We must defeat this deceptive measure.
We urge you to vote NO on Prop 32 this November, and ask your friends, family and co-workers to do the same.
