IT'S YOUR FREE CHOICE. Now, more than ever, it is important to help the middle class get a leg up. By passing the Employee Free Choice Act, Congress can jump start the economy by supporting workers' efforts to get their fair share when it comes to pay and benefits. After all, it's your free choice to organize at work. But once again, conservatives are up to their old tricks, mischaracterizing and twisting facts to make us afraid to do what is right for working Americans and their families.

UPDATE:
This is a fantastic efficient site with some other good petitions on it too:
Tell Congress to support the Employee Free Choice Act.
It came from Paul Pimentel's post that seems to be lost in a closet of the site or something because it also does not have a typical cause header on it, either on the page or when you see it on the search menu. The only way I have found to get there is by searching "free choice".
