Sign the Petition and Tell John Wilhelm: Put Workers First! Say YES to Arbitration

In this time of economic crisis workers need their unions more than ever. The labor movement must stay focused on organizing more workers and take advantage of this historic opportunity for progressive change.

That is why the fight between Workers United and UNITE HERE is a crisis not just for the unions involved, but for the entire progressive movement.

Right now, for the sake of all our members, as well as workers who want to join a union, we must end this dispute by putting the facts on the table and permitting an impartial arbitrator to resolve the conflict.

Join us in calling on John Wilhelm, President of UNITE HERE to agree to resolve these years of conflict through an independent arbitrator.

It’s time to put workers first!

• James Clancy, President of the NUPGE
