Unionization Fight Looms Over Tom Steyer’s 2020 Announcement
Field organizers for NextGen America, a group Steyer founded, are in a fight with managers over the size of their collective bargaining unit.
In a stinging public rebuke, a contingent of field organizers for the progressive youth mobilization group NextGen America called on the group’s management on Monday evening to end a month of “stalling” and agree to the employees’ terms for union recognition.
“While NextGen America’s field staff continue breaking turnout records in the ten states we organize, our management is siding with the GOP’s union-busting tactics,” the staff union said in a statement posted on social media.
