Working families are the engine that drives our economy and grows our middle class, and I will always have their backs in the face of an all-out assault on the right to organize by the Trump administration. All workers, including those in the public sector, deserve the right to collectively bargain for fair wages and safe working conditions. I’m proud to support legislation that would ensure those who put in a hard day's work have a seat at the table and a say in their future, and will continue to push back on this Administration’s harmful attempts to limit the right to organize.” Background: Earlier this year, Congressman Pappas helped reintroduce H.R. 20, the Richard L. Trumka Protecting the Right to Organize (PRO) Act, a comprehensive, bipartisan proposal to protect workers’ right to come together and bargain for higher wages, better benefits, and safer workplaces, and spoke out forcefully against news that the Trump administration had moved to end collective bargaining rights for a wide-ranging group of federal employees. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T15:07:37Z |
