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.

>>> Folks, we really need your participation now for 2 things:

>>> 2) Protest 1-2 pm Thursday, Jan 29 at the I Hotel.  Although the speaking engagement begins at 1:00, it wouldn't surprise me if we started the protest BEFORE 1:00, say 12:30 or 12:45, so stay tuned for the exact time which will be announced after tonight's plan meeting.

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.
