Dear Sirs,

Pursuant with the Freedom of Information Act I request the following documents be made available to me as quickly as possible.

I was shocked to read a story in the press, which said in so many words that your business is a communists controlled company and are in league with other Stalinists.

Repblican Employer pisses on Bill Of Rights

In the interest of getting the full and complete story, would you please respond with the following details? I am on an online columnist and I intend to fully cover this outbreak of communism on our shores. As a devoted American, I do feel that it is important to give both sides of an issue, even if one of the sides is the side of communism and Stalin.

To that end, I request the following:

1) A formal statement regarding your version of events leading to the termination of this employee.

2) A formal statement regarding your company's policy on the expression of political speech on the premises of this business (both by the employer and employees, if different) and whether or not this policy is available for view by all employees.

3) A copy of your written termination policies.

4) A statement that you thoroughly investigated and documented the reasons for termination, and a copy of that documentation.

5) A list of options to termination which were presented to the employee (Such as removing her bumper sticker)

6) A written statement of opportunities given the employee for corrective action.

7) A copy of any minutes or records of the termination meeting with the employee

8) A copy of your last evaluation of termination procedures

9) A statement as to whether the employee was ever warned prior to the event which led to her termination that any viewpoints not shared by her employer would not be tolerated, whether such viewpoints were expressed orally or in writing (as in the case of a bumpersticker).

4) A written statement detailing other expressions of speech which are not allowed orally or in writing on the premises (for example, bumper stickers of a religious nature, advocating or expressing pride in a particular sexual orientation, etc.?

I'd appreciate your filling this request as quickly as is possible. I do respect your right to do business, even though you are a communist.


Yours,
