Unions give workers a real voice on the job to keep up
with the cost of living, build a stable future, and
strengthen our communities. When workers can stand
together, wages go up, workplaces get safer, and families
have a real chance to live and thrive in Colorado. Unions
are the building blocks of democracy, critical to the fight
against Trump and authoritarianism.
We need a Governor who will fight back
against Trump and corporate billionaires
and strengthen workers’ rights in
Colorado! Email Jared Polis, Phil Weiser
and Michael Bennet, and tell them to
support the Worker Protection Act!

For more information visit coloradoworkers.org or coaflcio.org

Billion dollar corporations and the politicians who listen
to them profit from a system that keeps workers quiet,
keeps wages low, and makes it incredibly hard to form a
union. We need to fight back in Colorado by passing the
Worker Protection Act so workers can form a union
without intimidation or a second election created to stop
them. Every Democrat in the legislature voted for it last
year, but Governor Polis vetoed it.
