Anti-Union Group Americans For Prosperity Endorsed Nick Begich For Congress

Americans For Prosperity Endorsed Nick Begich For Congress. “Americans for Prosperity Action (AFP Action) is proud to announce its endorsement of Nick Begich for Alaska’s at-large congressional seat. Alaskans deserve a leader who embodies the independent spirit of the Last Frontier. Since her election, Mary Peltola has sided with the Biden-Harris administration each step of the way. Nick Begich is the leader who will stand up for Alaskans in Congress, fight to bring down the cost of living, and champion Alaska’s energy industry.” [Americans For Prosperity PAC, 9/10/24]

Americans For Prosperity Rejected The “Protecting The Right To Organize Act.” “Americans for Prosperity (AFP) called on Congress to reject the Protecting the Right to Organize (PRO) Act, which would make unprecedented, harmful changes to federal labor laws that would undermine the rights and interests of workers, employers, and the public. The PRO Act would, among other things, overturn and ban state right-to-work laws throughout the country, which have protected workers’ freedom of choice and been an economic boon for communities; violate the privacy of workers by requiring employers to release the private, personal information of their employees to union organizers and deprive workers of the right to vote on unionization in a secret ballot election under certain circumstances; and implement language nearly identical to California’s controversial AB-5 that would reclassify many independent contractors as employees under the National Labor Relations Act, restricting the opportunity of many to pursue independent, flexible work.” [Americans For Prosperity, 2/4/21]
