On May 17, 2009, 200 workers from Jacksonville and North Florida joined to rally for the Employee Free Choice Act and protest a 3-day conference being held by the Coalition for a Union-Free Environment (CUE). State Representative Audrey Gibson joined the workers on the march and spoke at the rally in front of the Hyatt Riverfront.
Sorry, but 200 people? Not too impressive if you ask me. That's because when you get into the specifics of this act, most reasonable people see that this does not respond to the problems being protested about. this legislation TAKES AWAY rights from working people. I remember when unions fought to pass laws that actually lifted up all workers. Sad that our unions have come to this
