Washington, D.C. — AWF’s Director of Policy Brian Johnson invites you to their release of the “2007 Index of Worker Freedom: A National Report Card”.

“With the recent political alignment between the Left and Big Labor unions, and the most recent invasions on worker freedom, it has become apparent that certain states are placing more emphasis on respecting workers rights than those which support controlled and regulated labor markets. This unique, first ever publication has never been more needed,” says Johnson.

There will be a brief press conference with opportunity for questions and participants and guests will be available for interviews afterwards. A light breakfast will be provided.

If you would like to have a blog, op-ed, or any article ready for print prior to the official release, we will send a confidential advanced electronic copy; Please contact communications director John Kartch at jkartch@atr.org
