The Senate will now consider budget reconciliation legislation that would cut employee rights and benefits. We need all NTEU members, leaders, friends, and family to take a stand. This legislation has horrific provisions that would destroy unions and threaten the foundation of our federal civil service system — and we need your voice in this fight NOW!
This Senate bill would:
Give the president broad authority to reorganize the government and fire countless federal employees with little to no oversight from Congress.
Undermine employee representation rights in the workplace.
Force new federal employees to choose between paying a 14.4% penalty from their salary to keep the civil service protections they are legally entitled to OR giving up those protections and becoming at-will employees, while still paying a 9.4% contribution — more than double what current employees pay (4.4%).
WE CAN NOT BACK DOWN - All NTEU members, friends and family must take a stand and demand that their Senators oppose this legislation and remove these harmful provisions!
Send a letter TODAY and every day this week!
Call your Senators offices (Capitol Switchboard: (202) 224-3121) and ask them to oppose provisions in the bill that target their Federal Employee constituents!
