Tell Congress: A Working NLRB is a Top CWA Priority
CWAers are on the phone to their members of Congress, urging them to sign on to Rep. Lucille Roybal-Allard's letter that calls on President Obama to make recess appointments of Craig Becker and Mark Pearce to the National Labor Relations Board.
So far, more than 100 U.S. representatives have signed on. With a March 25 deadline, CWA activists are working the phones, to let their representatives know that this is a top priority for CWA.
What's our message to Congress? Workers need a fully functioning NLRB. There are just two members now and that has delayed justice for workers and made a huge backlog of cases even worse.
With Senate Republicans continuing a campaign to stall these nominations, the only way to get a functioning majority on the NLRB is for President Obama to make appointments over the Easter congressional recess.
