I got a recorded message minutes ago from John Kerry, he is asking to vote Yes on Question 3, for what it’s worth. The message was paid for by Yes On 3 For Kids.
By the time voters get to it, many won’t understand it and will simply vote ‘no’.

Yeah I got the JK robocall just after putting my kids to sleep, praying the ringing phone wouldn’t undo my prior work, only to find it to be his Robocall – I will vote no on 3 as a protest.

you’re going to vote against allowing family care workers to organize just because of a stupid robocall? That’s pretty petty.

Does anybody on this progressive website have issues with collective bargaining?
alexwillsays
why is there even a debate on Q3? it seems like a no-brainer: of course family care workers should be allowed to collectively bargain, all workers should.

2 is a very debatable topic. #1 has some arguments against, but IMO an easy yes. #3 just seems an obvious yes!

Why wouldn’t child care workers have the right to organize? I don’t get it. Can anyone here make an argument for the change? I’m assuming question #3 is a proposal for change of some kind.

Congressman Barney Frank
