Dear Concerned American,

John King, the owner of a mid-size Toledo electrical contracting business, had been the regular target of union militants who would routinely slash the tires of his cars and throw rocks through his company’s windows.

Then things turned uglier when the IBEW militants turned their attention not to King’s company, but this time to his home.

Late one night while getting ready for bed, King noticed the motion lights turn on in his driveway.

When he went out to investigate, he was confronted by a union thug who had just finished spray painting the word “SCAB” across King’s SUV and was set to puncture his tires.

When King yelled, the man didn’t say a word. Instead he stood up, and without hesitation pulled out a gun and shot King.

Fortunately, Mr. King lived. Others have not been so lucky.

Unfortunately, because of the 1973 Enmons decision, union officials are exempt from federal prosecution -- as long as the campaign of violence they incite is in the name of "legitimate union objectives."

But passage of the Freedom from Union Violence Act would close the loophole in federal law and finally allow authorities to prosecute union officials for inciting violence.

So will you sign the petition in support of this bill below right away?

Sincerely,
signature
Mark Mix
President

Freedom from Union Violence Act Petition to:
My U.S. Senators and
Majority Leader Mitch McConnell



Whereas:    Every year militant union bosses deploy their thugs to target innocent men and women with threats, brass knuckles, knives and beatings in an attempt to send a simple message -- do what we want, or pay the price; and
Whereas:    Because of the 1973 Enmons decision, union officials are exempt from federal prosecution -- as long as the campaign of violence they incite is in the name of "legitimate union objectives"; and
Whereas:    Union violence is a crippling blow not only for innocent American workers targeted by union militants -- but for every American citizen; and
Whereas:    Passage of the Freedom from Union Violence Act would close the loophole in federal law and finally allow authorities to prosecute union officials for inciting violence;
Therefore:  I urge you to help hold union officials accountable for union violence by cosponsoring and seeking roll-call votes on the Freedom from Union Violence Act (S. 62).

Please submit the information below to sign the petition.
Copies will be sent to your U.S. Senators and
Majority Leader Mitch McConnell
