Save LIFO Coalition
LIFO, which stands for "last in, first out," is an inventory accounting method used by many companies across multiple industries in the U.S. to determine both book income and tax liability. Primarily, LIFO is used to manage the cost of inflation. If inventory costs are rising, LIFO is a more accurate way of measuring financial performance and calculating tax. LIFO takes into account greater costs of replacing inventory, thereby giving a more conservative measure of the financial condition of the business and the economic income to which tax shold apply.

Coalition For A Democratic Workplace
The Coalition For A Democratic Workplace is a coalition of workers, employers, associations, and organizations who are fighting to protect the right to a federally supervised private ballot when workers are deciding whether or not to join a union. ASA is opposed to the so-called Employee Free Choice Act because it would strip Americans of that right and replace it with a system where your vote is no longer private and it is made public to your employer, the union organizers, and your co-workers.
This coalition believes the only way to guarantee worker protection from coercion and intimidation is through the continued use of a federally supervised private ballot election so that personal decisions about whether to join a union remain private.
