Across the country, a campaign is under way to turn around the economy and make it work for everyone again by passing the Employee Free Choice Act, a critical bill to restore the freedom to form unions and bargain. Despite public support for the freedom to bargain in the workplace, the Employee Free Choice Act has come under heavy fire from big-money corporate lobbyists and shady front groups hoping to defeat it and preserve corporate domination over the process. The AFL-CIO has a new video to cut through the deceptive campaign and give the facts about the Employee Free Choice Act.

Arlene Holt Baker, executive vice president of the AFL-CIO, narrates the 10-minute video. She says that while emergency action is needed to create jobs and help the economy recover, turning around the economy in the longer term means giving workers the power to bargain for a better life.
