That's what Senator Arlen Specter said at a rally last week when workers told him his flip-flop on the Employee Free Choice Act could cost him their votes. (Watch the video clip here.)
http://www.americanrightsatwork.org/ activists have made over 1,000 phone calls and sent over 15,400 messages telling Specter not to sell out America's middle class. And Specter's words show it's working – but his words are empty until he changes his position.
In 2005, Specter co-sponsored the Employee Free Choice Act – the bill that would help more workers bargain for better wages, benefits, and working conditions by joining unions.
But earlier this year, Senator Specter caved in to political pressure and flip-flopped.
Thousands of people have called and emailed Specter to ask him not to sell out America's middle class. And it's working – last week Senator Specter said "I understand that my job's on the line." But until he changes his position, it's all just words.
Tell Senator Specter to listen to America's workers!
