To Reform:
To Reform:
The vast majority of working people throughout Oregon and the United States can be legally fired without any reason or prior notice.
At-will means your employment may be ended on a whim without cause.
At-will employment is job insecurity.
At-will is not due process, it is no process.
At-will allows for covert discrimination, and retaliation.
At-will is about control and class.
At-will chills advocacy.
At-will undermines safety.
At-will limits productivity.
At-will perpetuates inequality.
At-will divests opportunity.
At-will is a feudal vulnerability for workers, families, communities and our country.
At-will is an irrational default to sustain.
Let's make at-will employment history.
Let's initiate a just standard for the 21st century.
