Delivery tomorrow



Can you believe it? President Obama nominated a pro-working family Secretary of Labor! How novel.

But for some conservatives in the Senate, the prospect is too much to handle. They're doing all they can to block Rep. Hilda Solis from becoming our next Secretary of Labor simply because she supports the interests of working people.

Tomorrow we'll deliver our petition to the Senate in support of Solis' nomination. More than 10,000 of you have already signed, but we need to grow that number before our delivery.

Click here to watch our new video about Hilda Solis, then sign our petition to the Senate: http://action.seiu.org/page/s/confirmsolis




So who is Hilda Solis?

Hilda Solis is a champion of the middle class. She's fought for green jobs, fair pay for women, and children's health insurance. Raised by two union members, Solis is an experienced leader who has fought to restore balance to our economy and fairness for working families throughout her entire career.

Our country loses thousands of jobs every day. In the midst of our economic crisis, America's workers need a strong advocate at the table. Hilda Solis is the perfect person to be our Secretary of Labor - and it's time she was allowed to get to work.

Learn more about where Hilda Solis stands by watching our video and signing our petition. We'll deliver your signature to the Senate tomorrow.

Click here to sign the petition: http://action.seiu.org/page/s/confirmsolis

Thanks for all you do.

In Solidarity,

Michael Whitney
