Abbott about to attack workers - email crossbenchers now

The Abbott gov is about to try and get through the senate (this Wednesday the vote looks like happening) new anti-worker laws, that can only be described as a great leap back to WorkChoices. You can email the cross bench senators here:

BTW look over there, there's a war on the other side of the world.........
Dear Senators, 

I can’t afford for you to cut my pay and conditions. Please vote NO to stop the Fair Work Amendment Bill. 

No matter what Senator Abetz is telling you, the reality is that this Bill does everything for bosses and nothing for workers. This bill: 
· Reintroduces unfair individual contracts that can cut take home pay including weekend and penalty rates 
· Gives employers a veto over industrial action. 
· Allows employers to not pay-out some annual leave if we’re sacked or leave a job. 
· Gives mining and construction employers a special deal that allows them to write their own Enterprise Agreements. 
· Reduces the rights of workers to talk to their union at work if they need help. 

This Bill is an attack on the Australian way of life and will make my life harder. There is no room for negotiation. No room for amendment. Please vote NO. Email cross benchers here
