STOP SENATE BILL 2202

STOP SENATE BILL 2202

S.B. 2202 would ban any businesses receiving state funding from voluntarily recognizing a union that has demonstrated majority support in their workplace.

We know that a union contract with good wages and quality benefits provides families in Mississippi with a pathway to the middle class, but lawmakers are trying to make it more difficult for working people to achieve this. This legislation strips workers of essential freedoms, takes away the rights of Mississippi business owners to make their own workforce decisions and violates federal labor law.

Contact your Senator now and urge them to vote NO on this anti-worker bill!

Call lawmakers at (601) 359-3237 or click here to email them. We have the power of numbers on our side—don’t let your Senator forget that working people say NO to SB 2202!

Take Action Now!
