We need your help!

SUMMARY: IMMEDIATE ACTION NECESSARY. Join the fight to help TSA employees have the collective bargaining rights they deserve and that are enjoyed by other federal employees.
Since the creation of the Department of Homeland Security, Transportation Security Administration (TSA) employees have been denied collective bargaining rights based upon an administrative determination that granting such rights would compromise national security.
Recognizing the unfairness of this determination, as part of the legislation implementing the 9/11 Commission recommendations, Congress approved legislation granting collective bargaining rights to TSA employees.
In anticipation of a Presidential veto of this legislation because it includes the right of TSA employees to bargain collectively, we need your help. Attached is a petition we plan to deliver to the White House urging the President not to reject this important piece of nation security legislation and not to deny TSA employees the right to collectively bargain.
We urge you to write, call or e-mail youe Senators and Congressional representatives asking for their support and to override any veto of this important legislation. Also, please look for petitions in the workplace, and sign them. This will be a difficult battle and every signature counts.
Please remember, this veto is the latest salvo in the war on Federal Employee Unions, and we need to suppport our brothers and sisters in TSA. Remember, it CAN happen to us, too.
