Labor friends,

In your meeting tonight please keep in mind that the I Hotel and Hoolihans has always been very pro union supporters.  I would like to stress the importance of keeping the relationship with the hotel and restaurant in good standing!  

In solidarity,

Matt Kelly
President
Champaign County 
AFL CIO 
Central Labor Council

Attachments included, thanks to Dan Gilbert of the UIUC School of Labor and Employment Relations, of the fact sheet and "Policy Brief" from a 2013 U of I study conducted by Dan's colleagues on the potential effects of RTW on Illinois. "Rauner's claims about RTW are directly contradicted by actual research conducted at the university at which he is speaking tomorrow," says Dan.

Newsflash: Right to Work would be really bad. Rauner's claims about RTW are directly contradicted by actual research conducted at the university at which he is speaking tomorrow.
