Employee Free Choice Act buttons for sale

http://www.northlandposter.com/employee-free-choice-act.html

The Employee Free Choice Act is labor's top legislative goal. Defeating it is a major objective for business interests. In order to build widespread support, the Act will need to appeal to a number of distinct constituencies: union members who must be convinced that higher union density in the labor force will enhance worker power; non-union workers who can see the benefits of union membership and must see the Act as a means to achieve it for themselves; and members of the public at large who support workers struggles or see unionization as a path to rebuild our communities, economy and public well-being through an increased standard of living and greater democratic voice in the work world.

This selection of buttons offer a range of slogans to build support for the act from a number of angles. Order them in any combination (or in combination with any of our other button designs) for quantity discounts. See which messages resonate with your members or neighbors.

Last year the AFL-CIO did a fund raiser to keep them in business. I wish that was in the company history below. I bought the Shame of New Orleans shirt etc...

Picture This: A History of Northland Poster Collective

Images are the best way to tell the story of Northland Poster Collective.

Picture this: The Northland Cultural Workers' Conference in Minneapolis, 1979. Eleven young graphic artists meet in a workshop, and excitedly feed off one another's ideas about using art to chronicle and create social change.They meet again, and again, eventually forming a collective to critique one another's art. Lisa Blackshear, Dean Conners, Marilyn Hall, Lee Hoover, Richard Kees, Ricardo Levins Morales, Janice Perry, Frank Sander, Carla Stetson, Mary Sutton, and Lee Wolfson belong to this early incarnation of the collective. George Beyer, an artist who cut his teeth during the CIO organizing drive of the 1930s, delightedly attends their meetings. He encourages them to use silk screening to put their art into circulation.
