Taking the Fight Online

AFSCME members have always spoken truth to power — through rallying, canvassing, calling legislators or simply delivering a strong message at the ballot box.

AFSCME members have always spoken truth to power — through rallying, canvassing, calling legislators or simply delivering a strong message at the ballot box. Today, there are even more ways of spreading the word and fighting for working families. Faced with a relentless propaganda campaign against public employees (see Page 10) and the need to preserve our congressional majorities and governor seats in November, we must use every tool at our disposal to make our voices heard.

Thousands of AFSCME members have already connected on our Facebook page, one of the fastest-growing online communities of union members.
