Many states ban vote solicitation and signs within 50-200 ft of polling locations. I'm sure it's only for state+ level votes, but it seems to me like having signs saying to vote NO directly on and adjacent to the voting machine for a legally protected union vote should be not legal...

The fact they are putting these up should let you know it's something you want to join

My union got me more money in a single year than I will pay in dues for my entire career in at least 3 separate years in the 6 years I've been working for my employer.

I get leave each year that is slightly more than 20 percent of my work hours.

Unions are amazing for workers.

It's amazing how anti union the US is. Unionise everything unless you want to be bent over and fucked by the long dick of capitalism.

Never forget: If a company doesn't want you to have it, it's probably a good for you.

Most companies don't want you to drink cyanide, but it isn't good for you. Most companies don't want you getting hurt on the job. Most companies don't want you drinking or doing drugs while using heavy equipment. All these things arent good for you.

I'm not saying to unionize or not, but the logic is fallacious.

These posters make me want to organize.

It tells me that they think paying for graphics, ads etc are just a fraction of what I can gain.
