This Labor Day, we work
We need to tell voters the truth about deceptive Proposition 32Dear State Employee:
For years, Labor Day marked the beginning of the November election season.
Media coverage of union picnics and rallies celebrated the fact that great nations were built by the hard work of everyday people from all walks of life.
Since the key to unlocking the American Dream was a good job, employees organized unions at their workplace to have a stronger voice on the job, in the community and in the political arena.
Join me this Labor Day weekend as we honor those who fought for worker's rights.
It was understood that the only way to balance the power of big corporations and wealthy special interests was a stronger movement of middle-class people ... unions.
This year, as state employees and union members, we will celebrate Labor Day and honor our efforts to provide quality public services.
But we will not be resting. We will be out working on two statewide ballot measures critical to state employees. Proposition 30 is a unique opportunity. Proposition 32 is a deceptive danger.
This Labor Day, as you take a breather to celebrate, please take a minute to think about getting involved to make things better, to make our union stronger, and to ensure that we all have a shot at the American Dream.
In Unity,
Yvonne R. Walker
President
