CAN EMPLOYEES GET SIGNED UNION AUTHORIZATION CARDS BACK?
If you signed a union authorization card as an employee, you DO have a right to ask the union for your card back. This is called "revoking" your union authorization card.
Employees who are misled by union organizers into signing union authorization cards will very often change their minds and want their cards back. While unions will sometimes tell employees it is "too late," this is false. Employees who have signed a union authorization card do have a right* to demand to get their card back if they so choose.
*Note: In order for card revocations to be valid, you should NOT attempt to have your employer assist you in the revoking of your signed union authorization card.
