If you live in Emmanuel's district, you should be supporting Tom Geoghegan in his attempt to win the special election to replace him.
Who's Geoghegan? A practicing labor lawyer (bio at Facebook) who wrote one of the best books I've ever read on the plight of the American labor movement. It's called Which Side Are You On?, and it was originally published in 1991. It was an attempt to show how Corporate America, particularly under Reagan, was winning every battle against its workers, often with the collusion of the National Labor Relations Board and even its own international union colleagues.
If you're not from that district but you'd like to help, here's the ActBlue page for his campaign.
