Why You Matter

You are the key to winning for working families this November. Backing you are local unions in your area, the Dallas labor federation, the state federation, and the national AFL-CIO.

The Dallas AFL-CIO Political Committee met on July 29 and is primed for action. Texas AFL-CIO President Rick Levy said that the polling may look positive for working families this year, but we take nothing for granted and will go all-out for victory. He said that the entire state team is backing Texas Political Director Lorraine Montemayor, a graduate of the Dallas labor movement, as the wheels of progress begin grinding. Montemayor is calling for legions of volunteers to do the grass-level work that leads to victory. Training is free. Volunteer at admin@dallasaflcio.org.

HEROES Act is Priority

Our national focus continues to be saving the nation from the health, economic, and racial justice crises. Call Senators to urge them to pass the $3 trillion HEROES Act instead of any band-aid approach. We are asked to call 1-866-832-1560 for the HEROES Act instead of the inadequate proposal that recently came from Republican leader Mitch Mcconnell.
