Get Involved
Whether you are in the public or private sector, active or retired, now is the time to take action. We know that the same CEOs and corporations who rig the economic rules in their favor pour hundreds of millions of dollars into our elections. The only answer to the power of their money is the power of organizing. Our completely voluntary political action fund allows us to work together to organize, build political power and enact legislative programs that protect our jobs. However, we can only do this with your help. We cannot contribute union dues to Federal candidates. Through PEOPLE, thousands of AFSCME members help get out the vote for candidates who support working families and the vital services we provide in our communities. We make phone calls, knock on doors and do whatever it takes to turn out more voters. We cannot hesitate to take action, be a part of history, volunteer and contribute today!
Across the country, Americans are facing an out-of-balance economy that favors the wealthy while wages remain stagnant for everyone else. Working families are struggling to get ahead and public services are under attack. AFSCME PEOPLE, our union’s political action fund, provides us with an opportunity to stand together to protect the benefits and rights we’ve won in our workplaces and our communities.
We must take an active role to elect politicians who advocate for issues that are important to working families, like the need to balance the economy, defend workers’ rights, secure workers’ benefits, invest in public services, and ensure a secure retirement for all. By contributing today, you can help elect local, state and federal candidates who will fight for us and the issues we care about most.
We have not had a pension increase since 2001 and are working hard at the Capitol to secure a 13th check for ERS retirees.
If you haven’t reached out to lawmakers, this is the time to email them. If you’ve already reached out, you can do so again. Let’s make sure it’s “NOW” and not “NEVER” for our 13th check.
