AFGE Activist,

We stopped the shutdown.

The past few weeks, AFGE members across the nation have sent a flurry of letters, calls, and meeting requests to Congress. Union members spoke out thousands of times in local, regional, and even national media about what a shutdown would mean for federal workers and the Americans we serve.

We’ve been leading voices speaking out to stop this disastrous shutdown before it even started. And our activism worked.

Today, Congress passed a bipartisan continuing resolution through both houses to fund the government for 45 days, and prevent a disastrous government shutdown.

Thank you for everything you’ve done to raise your voice and organize around this issue. It’s one more reminder that there is power in a union.

In Solidarity,

AFGE
