Protecting the Right to Organize Act of 2021
Floor Speech
Issues: Labor Unions
BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT
Mr. GREEN of Texas. Madam Speaker, and still I rise. And I thank the Honorable Bobby Scott for the opportunity to be heard. I will be terse.
Madam Speaker, unions protect people. Unions protect people because those workers will organize and make sure that there is a safe work environment.
This is important because if not but for the union, many companies would simply build into the cost of doing business the injuries that may be sustained. I am a member of Local 1550 of AFSCME and proud to say it.
Madam Speaker, I support this legislation because it will save lives.
