Guest guest Posted August 25, 2009 Report Share Posted August 25, 2009 HELP SPREAD THE WORD!!! The election is about a month away. 1. Even though you signed a card for AFSCME or SEIU - YOU CAN STILL VOTE NO UNION WHEN THE BALLOT IS MAILED TO YOUR HOME. 2. You have a legal right to revoke any union authorization card that you have signed. You may revoke any union authorization card you have signed by simply signing a letter, card, petition, or other document stating that you do not support the union, or that you support another union. Under the National Labor Relations Board's " dual card " doctrine, it is well-established that when an employee signs two documents with conflicting statements of union support, the two documents cancel each other out. You should send a letter by certified mail, return receipt requested, so that you have proof of delivery. Send by Certified Mail, Return Receipt Requested] UNION Official [President or Secretary-treasurer, for example] UNION ADDRESS Dear Sir: I write to inform you that I do not want to be " represented " by your union, do not wish to be a member of your union, and do not support your union in any manner. Please consider my opposition to representation by your union to be permanent and continuing in nature. I hereby revoke and rescind any union " authorization " card, or any other indication of support for your union, that I may have signed in the past. Any such card or indication of support for your union is null and void, effective immediately. Please return to me any union authorization card that I may have signed. Alternatively, please inform me in writing that you are honoring this revocation and rescission of support for your union. Please be aware that refusing to honor my revocation and rescission will violate my rights under the National Labor Relations Act. Moreover, representing to my employer (or any third party or " arbitrator " ) that I support representation by your union will similarly violate my legal rights.
