Proudly Printed Union

Some of you may have learned about our campaign by way of a mailer sent to your home or place of work. We proudly used a union printing shop to produce those letters and we're happy with the high quality communications they delivered - with one big exception. The union bug was accidentally left off the final product sometime after the last proof we saw.

We, like many of you, look for that tiny symbol of quality workmanship and fair play on the printed materials we receive. It sends a signal about the values behind the message we read.

The bottom line is that it's important to us to support good wages and workplace rights for all. It's a big part of what this campaign is about. So we're putting up this page with a letter from the printer assuring us (and you) that they are an 100% union operation.

Thanks for supporting the campaign to end Fast Track!

Erminia Osorio-Perez of Achuapa, Nicaragua grows corn to feed her family, selecting and saving her own seeds. But with Nicaragua and Central America adopting the CAFTA "free" trade pact, her way of life may vanish. In Mexico, the entrance of cheap, subsidized U.S. corn under NAFTA resulted in more than 2 million small corn producers losing their livelihoods in the last 12 years.

We are proud that our campaign communications are 100% union printed. However, due to a production oversight the union bug does not appear on our mailer. Click for more information

Today's Reason to reject Fast Track

  • No real limits on pollution lead to environmental devastation in the United States and abroad. In fact, the way these agreements are written, countries may be sued (and have been) for upholding their environmental laws.
