Congratulations OHIO workers !!!
 
June 20, 2011

See AFL-CIO Secretary-Treasurer Liz Shuler and others at the Netroots Nation Plenary session talk about achieving economic equality.

In an incredible mobilization, Ohio workers, activists and other volunteers collected 714,137 signatures in just two months for a November referendum to repeal a bill that eliminates the collective bargaining rights of more than 350,000 public employees. That’s more than three times the number needed to qualify for the ballot.
