PRO Act

(This blog features American politics.)

Tomorrow there will be events held to support the passage of the PRO act, a bill which would be the most significant expansion of workers' rights there has been in decades.

These events are especially relevant in the states of Arizona and Virginia, if you are near an event and available I highly recommend that you attend. Their senators are democrats who have not yet supported the bill, but may be persuaded to with your help.

Normally I would frown upon legislative means of expanding workers' rights (as opposed to physical or revolutionary), but advocating for worker's rights is praxis. (Also, bougies are pushing back against it so pissing them off is a side benefit)

See if there is an event near you

The PRO act does things such as:

  • Expands the legal definitions of Employee, Employer, and Supervisor to include more individuals under Fair Labor Standards
  • Prohibits discrimination against workers who participate in strikes
  • Prevents employers from forcing employees into attending anti-union meetings
  • Makes employers not allowed to enter agreements where the employee surrenders the right to pursue/join lawsuits against the employer
  • Implements various whistleblower protections
  • Establishes penalties for entities which fail to comply with National Labor Relations Board orders
