Legislative action needed!

Update from UFF:

HR 1 will be heard by House State Affairs Committee tomorrow morning at 8am tomorrow (Feb 13) in Morris Hall (17HOB) This bill would prohibit automatic renewal of union memberships and require members to refile paperwork every year.   This is union-busting pure and simple.   Please do what you can to call/email or otherwise communicate with legislators to make your view known.  We are joined in opposition by our Union brothers and sisters in all areas from State Employees to Pipefitters to First Responders.  Email can be reached through each member’s webpage:
