Politics

To advance our interests as a union and advocate for all workers, it is pivotal that all members exercise their right to vote. Voting is your right as a citizen and your chance to choose and hold your elected officials accountable. Never underestimate the power of your vote.

Being involved in the political process ensures the growth and security of working people and their families. Political action is an opportunity for members to have hands on involvement in city and state politics.
