Tell the Senate to Confirm Tom Perez
The country needs a labor secretary and we think Tom Perez is the best man for the job. That’s why today we’re calling on senators to stop the unwarranted attacks and filibuster threats against the president’s nominee. We’re joining our Affiliate, Casa de Maryland, and the National Hispanic Leadership Agenda (NHLA) in a march and a press conference today to make sure we’re heard loud and clear.
Tomorrow, the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions is scheduled to vote on Perez’ nomination and we need your help in making sure those senators know we support him.
There are several steps you can take to do this and NHLA has made it easy with two resource pages full of actions you can take both online and offline
To get you started, we’ve included a few tweets and facebook updates you can use.
