PRO Act

Tell Congress: Stop the PRO Act!

Tell your U.S. representative and senators that the misleadingly-named Protecting the Right to Organize (PRO) Act is bad for business.

Congress needs to hear your voice this week to stop a union wish list of policies that will systematically alter labor law in favor of unions and restrict the rights of employees and employers. The PRO Act contains dozens of extreme labor proposals that would destroy businesses and diminish employees’ rights to privacy.

As the pandemic continues to create hardships and instability for businesses and workers, now is not the time to pursue this radical and far-reaching legislation.

Advocates for the bill, misleadingly named the “Protecting the Right to Organize” (PRO) Act, claim it will help workers organize. The bill actually infringes on individual employee rights and privacy, erases employers’ rights to due process, removes safeguards against improper union activity, and limits opportunities to achieve the American dream.

We need your help! Please contact your Representative and tell them to stop the PRO Act! Your opinions matter!

Message to LegislatorI stand strong with the Surprise Regional Chamber of Commerce in expressing my opposition to the Protecting the Right to Organize (PRO) Act, legislation that would harm workers, employers, and the economy. The PRO Act is a mash-up of almost every failed idea from the past 30 years of labor policy. These so-called “reforms” would undermine worker rights, ensnare employers in unrelated labor disputes, disrupt the economy, and force individual Americans to pay union dues regardless of their wishes. Among its many onerous provisions, the PRO Act would: • Eliminate Arizona's and every other state's Right-to-Work laws, which protect workers in more than half the country against being fired if they decline to pay union dues. • Undermine private ballot union representation elections—a fundamental right since 1935. • Deny individuals the ability to work independently, threatening the emerging “gig” economy and taking away the flexibility that has allowed American businesses of all sizes to grow. • Allow unions to launch disruptive protests and pickets against any employer, even those that have nothing to do with a labor dispute. • Impose liability on businesses for workplaces they don’t control and workers they don’t employ. • Impose mandatory union contracts if a union and employer do not reach an agreement and deprive workers of the right to vote on the terms and conditions of their own employment. • Increase needless class-action lawsuits by restricting alternate means of dispute resolution in the workplace. • Prevent workers from decertifying a union even if they are unhappy with it. Senators need to stand up for the rights of America’s workers and employers and oppose the PRO Act, and Members of the House should oppose any further effort to enact it. I encourage you not to support the PRO Act in any way. The Surprise Regional Chamber of Commerce represents 5,000 members of the business community located in El Mirage, Sun City, Sun City West, Surprise, Waddell, and Youngtown. We thank you for your support on this urgent matter.
