Greetings,

Right after workers at Neil Med's distribution facility in Santa Rosa, California began their organizing efforts, management terminated three of the most vocal union supporters.

As Neil Med profits, the company continues to subject workers to the most deplorable working conditions. Some workers have suffered heat strokes. They have limited or no access to water and bathrooms. Some of them have worked Saturdays for free, while others have been forced to clean the bosses house and perform gardening duties.

These men and women are fighting for the things every hardworking American deserves: a decent quality of life for their families and dignity on the job. They are in urgent need of support from the community. The workers are counting on your help to protect their jobs­ and show Neil Med that our community will not tolerate this harassment, intimidation and unsafe working conditions.

Please contact the managers at Neil Med and tell them to stop their union busting now.

Subject: Tell Neil Med to Stop Union Busting

Dear [decision maker name automatically inserted here],

I am writing to express my alarm and deep concern over recent reports that Neil Med is engaging in union busting. We are aware that you are using the services of "union buster" Mark Jordan. Instead of spending money "busting" the union, that money could go towards workers' wages or improving safety standards.

Employees who participate in labor organizing must have the right to do so without fear of intimidation, coercion or interference. Erosion of worker's rights in our community is no laughing matter. We are also gravely concerned about what we are hearing in regard to the working conditions at your Santa Rosa, California facility. We also demand you cease from denying workers their federally protected right to a democratic election and correct any abuses. You have an obligation to correct these abuses immediately. It is illegal to fire workers or refuse to reasonably accommodate workers in retaliation for union activity and we insist you remedy this situation immediately.

You will not slow these workers down. Their unity is stronger than ever. We are writing you to tell you we support these workers and do not tolerate union busting and the abuse of working people.

Sincerely,

[Your Name]
