VIRGINIA â Protecting the Right to Organize (PRO) Act supporters gathered in front of Sen. Amy Klobucharâs Virginia to rally and bring awareness to the legislation now working its way through Congress.
âWith the PRO Act, workersâ rights would be protected and strengthened, allowing them to organize and bargain for fairer wages, better benefits, and an overall improvement in their safety,ââ said Lee Cutler, field organizer for the North East Area Labor Council.
Sen. Tina Smith, an original co-sponsor of PRO, âstrongly believes that collective bargaining is a fundamental right,ââ according to Hannah Alstead, Smithâs Northeast Regional Outreach Director.
