Kagan's "Strong Opposition" To Worker Freedom

Harry Reid is at it again. With just days before the Senate takes a month-long recess, the union-label Reid wants to ram through radical forced unionism proponent Elena Kagan's nomination to the U.S. Supreme Court!

Please call or email your U.S. Senators and urge them to oppose the nomination of Elena Kagan to the Supreme Court.

Senator Maria Cantwell: call (202) 224-3441 or e-mail

Senator Patty Murray: call (202) 224-2621 or e-mail

You see, Big Labor has been itching for years to stack the Supreme Court with more judges who will rubber stamp the worst kinds of union boss malfeasance...

...and Elena Kagan fits the bill perfectly with a long track record of being hostile to free speech, specifically the right of nonunion workers to refrain from subsidizing union political activities.

That's why it's vital you act IMMEDIATELY.

As a lifetime appointee, Elena Kagan would decide important cases for years or even decades to come -- including many cases dealing with Big Labor's forced dues powers.

In fact, attorneys from our sister organization -- the National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation -- have appeared before the High Court 14 times, securing many important victories for worker freedom along the way.

In one of the Foundation's most notable wins, Communication Workers of America v. Beck, the Supreme Court blocked private sector union bosses from spending forced dues on their radical politics.

But internal Clinton Administration memos reveal that Kagan strongly disagrees with the well-established legal principle that workers have the constitutional right not to be compelled to subsidize union political activities!

Kagan wrote that she opposed any legislation that would make "it more difficult for unions to use money from compulsory union dues in political campaigns."

It would be a major coup for the union bosses to get a justice on the Supreme Court who will ignore the First Amendment's guarantee of basic worker freedom of speech and association.

That's why it's vital you contact your U.S. Senators TODAY!

Call or email Senator Maria Cantwell and Senator Patty Murray IMMEDIATELY and urge them to oppose Elena Kagan's nomination to the Supreme Court.

Senator Maria Cantwell: call (202) 224-3441 or e-mail

Senator Patty Murray: call (202) 224-2621 or e-mail

With Elena Kagan's willingness to bypass the First Amendment, it simply too dangerous to stay silent and do nothing.

Please act NOW!

Sincerely,
