Look, unnecessary delays in union representation elections provide corporations with more time to wage anti-union campaigns using illegal and legal tactics. That is why folks are going to be against this. When workers file a petition for union representation elections, corporations must properly notify them of their rights under the law. It is pretty clear. It is pretty transparent, and allows, again, information to get to workers, our neighbors that are there that want to organize for better wages, for protection at the workplace. I urge my colleagues to please vote ``yes'' on this amendment. Madam Chair, I yield the balance of my time to the gentlewoman from Florida (Ms. Frankel).
