This week on Meet the Bloggers, SEIU President Andy Stern will be discussing the Employee Free Choice Act (EFCA) along with bloggers Baratunde Thurston (JackandJillPolitics.com) and Michael Whitney (American Rights at Work).
EFCA would effectively enable workers to unionize and secure contracts without the fear of being fired. If this legislation passes, it would create job stability and compel companies to provide fair wages and adequate healthcare benefits for their employees. Check out some of the material below on EFCA, then tune into Meet the Bloggers at 1pm ET/10am PT to join the conversation.
