Beware Of Mailers That Seem Misleading or Confusing…
Have you gotten one of these mailers and/or emails from “Opt Out Today” lately? They are trying to make you believe they stand up for Oregon workers, but the truth is, they are an anti-worker organization funded by wealthy corporations who want nothing more than to take away workers’ rights and your ability to bargain great contracts.
Opt Out Today, also known as the Freedom Foundation, is afraid of unions and afraid of worker power. They know that when workers stop paying dues, they limit collective bargaining power and the ability to win strong contracts. Without strong contracts, employers can get away with lower wages and working conditions. Why would any pro-worker organization invest so much time and money trying to whittle down worker power?
If you see one of these Opt Out Today anti-worker postcards in your mailbox, plop it into your recycling bin – don’t give up your membership and don’t give up your power.
