Politico reports on a new ad for the Employee Free Choice Act that debuts this weekend:
Labor groups are running a new ad, "Fabric of America," which was shot in an actual flag factory that uses union workers. The spot, by American Rights at Work, will run on broadcast and cable in key states, and on national cable.

The Huffington Post reports on why this ad will run:
"This recess, we will not allow our leaders to forget that workers across the country are counting on them to make the economy work for everyone again," said American Rights at Work director Mary Beth Maxwell in a press release, which says plans are set for rallies, leafleting, town hall meetings, and other activities during the recess.
And here's the script of the ad:
"It's an idea that makes America strong.
"It's a fair day's pay for a hard day's work. It's health insurance when you're sick or injured. It's job security to provide for your family. It's the fabric of a sound economy. It built the middle class.
"And it's what the Employee Free Choice Act is all about: Letting workers choose to join a union to earn better pay and benefits.
"The Employee Free Choice Act. It's time our economy worked for everyone again."
