This eight-minute video can be downloaded and then played via your computer to your managerial staff, educating them on the many threats card check poses to the U.S. lodging industry. Presently, legal recognition of a union is achieved through secret ballot elections, in which each worker decides whether or not to support a union in the privacy of the voting booth.
Help the American Hotel & Lodging Association defeat card check legislation. Circulate this ad to all of your member companies and let them know what we are doing to educate the public about the real purpose of the so-called "Employee Free Choice Act" and to defeat this ill-conceived legislation when union leadership presses for another vote in 2009. You are an essential component in this effort, as we need our members to bring this to your legislator's attention via writing letters and backing the ad campaign.
