We just launched a brand new TV ad that shows just how out-of-whack our economy has become – and how the Employee Free Choice Act will restore the balance.

We're releasing these ads as part of a big new effort to boost the Employee Free Choice Act for Labor Day. Watch our new ad – and if you like it, pitch in to help more people see it on TV!

Last week, we made the Employee Free Choice Act a central issue at the Democratic National Convention. Now we're taking our message to the people whose livelihoods are at stake in this crumbling economy.

As workers' paychecks shrink and they struggle to make ends meet, CEOs average $6,153 an hour and reward themselves with lavish bonuses and golden parachutes. Now some CEOs are funding phony front groups with a slick smear campaign of deceptive ads.

That's why today, the day we celebrate America's workers, we're fighting back.

We may not have the deep pockets of our opponents, but we have something much more powerful – the support of thousands of people like you.

Watch the ad and help us get it on the air. Every little bit helps.

Together we can win this fight and help level the playing field for working families before next Labor Day rolls around.

Enjoy the holiday, and thanks so much for your support.

Sincerely,

Liz Cattaneo

3. Though I am not rich, I admit I am part of management.
Large Corporations have done some horrible, heartless actions. Being a majority owner of a tiny business, I am honest, and do the best I can for and with the people who chose to work for my company. Thank you to them. I am completely for union representation, but I am also for the business not failing. A middle path.
