Pro-Free Choice Act Video Contrasts Verizon and Cingular

A new AFL-CIO video, "Justice: The Heart of Organizing," is being offered at no charge to union locals in hopes that leaders will show it at meetings, orientations and other events.

The 14-minute video helps make the case for the Employee Free Choice Act by showcasing organizing campaigns, including CWA's fight at Verizon Wireless and success at Cingular. Health care workers, building trade workers, miners and teachers are also featured. Workers describe the struggle of having no union representation and the illegal tactics employers have used to thwart organizing efforts.

To get a free copy of the DVD, e-mail the AFL-CIO union store at store@aflcio.org. Additional copies of the video are $5 each.
