Then in small groups, have everyone read EFCA factsheet (see Handout: Employee Free Choice Act).
Discussion question: How would your job and life be different if the Employee Free Choice Act were law?
Discussion question: How would our economy and society be different if Employee Free Choice Act were law?
Activity: Tell each small group, "You have 3 minutes
in an elevator with the one Senator whose yes vote will make EFCA pass
and become law. What do you tell her? Why is the Employee Free Choice
Act good for workers and the entire community where you live?" Have
each small group make three-minute presentation (they can choose to
have multiple speakers or just one).
Discuss presentations. What worked? What could have been
stronger? Have groups give each other feedback on how call for
Employee Free Choice Act could be more effective.
