We Were There

by AFSCME   |  September 11, 2009

In memory of the nearly 3,000 people lost on September 11, 2001, including some 600 union members and nine of our AFSCME sisters and brothers: Yvette Anderson, Florence Cohen, Harry Goody, Marian Hrycak, Dorothy Temple, Chet Louie, Rev. Mychal Judge, Ricardo Quinn and Carlos Lillo.

We Were There

We Were There.

We are the firefighters, police officers, EMTs, health care providers, social and emergency workers, 911 operators, highway crews and others who responded on September 11th.

We Will Always Be There. Whether it's making our communities safe or protecting our children, we are Americans dedicated to doing our jobs and keeping our country strong. Now more than ever —

We Are In the Public Service.

We Are AFSCME.
