Join the Winning Side!

Now is the time for your commitment. A good start would be to help the Dallas AFl-CIO screen candidates and get ready to win the 2022 elections. Contact political.dallasaflcio@gmail.com.

There are many progressive organizations that would be overjoyed to get you. The strongest of them are labor-related. We are seeing a string of good union contract settlements because of the upsurge in courageous workers on the battle lines. A sterling example was set this week when nurses in Massachusetts won the longest nurses’ strike in labor history!

COVID Isn’t Stopping Us

The Auto Workers Union wisely postponed the leadership conference that was scheduled for January 10 in Fort Worth. The Texas AFL-CIO COPE Conference and the Texas Alliance for Retired Americans convention, both scheduled for mid-January, are going on-line. The Dallas AFL-CIO is doing its early election work on-line.

We aren’t stopping. We aren’t even pausing!
