Government Reform Committee Agenda

February 1, 2012

9 AM

Senate Room 3

Brothers and Sisters,

Well, here we go again. The Republicans in the Legislature have decided to go after Union workers again. Instead of focusing on the creation of jobs and improving education for our children, they have decided you have no right to a collective voice. At this time we do not have the court’s decision on the last round of anti-worker bills they attempted to put into law last session, but the Goldwater Institute has called on their “friends” at the Legislature to try and make sure your freedom to belong to a Union is tied up in endless regulations and restrictions. Why does the Goldwater Institute want your rights compromised?

SB 1484 Paycheck Deductions

SB 1485 Unions; Public Employees; Prohibitions

SB 1486 Public Employees; Activities; Unions; Compensation

SB 1487 Government Employees; Union Dues; Withholding

These bills are on the agenda for the Senate Government Reform Committee Wednesday, 2/1/12 at 9am, in Senate Room 3. Please e-mail and call the following committee members to let them know you want a NO vote on these bills. Ask them to focus on the agenda of the voters of Arizona. Tell them we need jobs in Arizona and not restrictions on workers.

$5.00 For The Fight Campaign

The fight against our rights and benefits has begun and we must act now to combat it. The attack on collective bargaining rights for our public sector union members in Wisconsin, Ohio, Indiana and Florida is only the beginning. Many other states and the Federal Government are in the process of going even further. The Republicans in the House and Senate have now introduced legislation trying to repeal the rights of railroad workers guaranteed under the Railway Labor Act.
