Call To Action: Right To Work (For Less) Hearing On Tues Jan 10th
Saturday, January 7, 2017
Hi folks,
The New Hampshire Senate will be holding a hearing on so called "Right to Work' on Tuesday, January 10, at 1:00 PM at Representatives Hall at the State House in Concord. We need you to show up and bring a friend with you, if you can. We all know that "Right to Work" is the preferred method to destroy unions in this country. This is wrong for businesses and wrong for New Hampshire workers and their families. The Senate is trying to ram this bill through which explains the short notice and lack of fanfare or advertising about it. They believe with short notice, they will not get many people to the hearing and thus not hear the will of New Hampshire workers. Even if you can only come to the State House for a few minutes, your voice could make a difference. Please attend in person, sign in, in opposition of Senate Bill 11-FN. If you cannot attend, please write your senator, representatives, executive council member, and the Governor, and let them know that you do not support "Right to Work" legislation, as it only destroys workers' rights and favors opposition of Corporate bosses. These kinds of bills are drafted by the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC), an organization funded by the Koch Brothers.
SB 11-FN text http://www.gencourt.state.nh.us/lsr_search/billText.aspx?id=141&type=3
This bill prohibits collective bargaining agreements that require employees to join or contribute to a labor union.

Note: the Calendar on the Senate Calendar Page (http://www.gencourt.state.nh.us/Senate/calendars_journals/default.html) is labelled "No.05, January 05, 2016". It could be a mistake, or it could be a ploy to trick folks into thinking it was last year's calendar.

Right To Work(For Less) Pops Up Yet Again-NH Senate Vote SB217 Set For Thursday January 30th
Wednesday, January 29, 2014
From the SEA:
Right To Work for Less Just Won't Go Away
It wouldn’t be a NH legislative session if Right to Work (for less) wasn’t on the docket. The cookie cutter legislation that is so damaging to middle class working families came up again this week in the form of SB217, sponsored by Senator John Reagan, R-Deerfield.
Regrettably, earlier this week, the Senate Finance Committee backed the latest iteration of the bill after hearing familiar arguments from both sides of the always-controversial issue.
We are pleased and appreciate that Gov. Maggie Hassan expressed her opposition in a strongly-worded letter to the committee.
She wrote that a right to- work law would “undercut the fundamental right of employees to engage in collective bargaining with their employers and cause unnecessary economic harm to New Hampshire’s hard-working families.” The Bill will be voted on in the full Senate next Thursday, January 30. We urge all members to contact their state Senator and register your opposition to this bill that would be devastating to workers across the state. If you are unsure who your Senator is, follow this link to find out.
Contact Your NH Senator-HB591 NH Senate Vote Thursday, January 30th
HB591 is legislation that would help maintain a healthy work environment by prohibiting abuse of state employees in the workplace. The bill will make its way to the Senate floor Thursday, January 30th for a full Senate vote.
Please contact NH Senators.Tell them it is time to take bullying out of the workplace. If you are unsure who your Senator is follow this link to find out.
