To: BAC Local 1 OR/WA/ID/MT members

RE: Montana HB 251

Dear BAC Local 1 Members,

I write to inform you that the Montana Legislature is currently considering bill H.B. 251 - a union
busting piece of legislation. H.B. 251 would make Montana a “Right-to-Work” state, or what we
call, “Right-to-Work for Less”.

Protect Montana Workers' Quality of Life

Montana's State Legislature is considering  HB 251 , a right-to-work bill.  This bill will cut pay, benefits, our way of life and create dangerous work conditions.  In right-to-work states, pay for skilled workers  and benefits in the construction trade is far below those that have collective bargaining.   Contact your legistlature and tell them what you think!
