“The only effective answer to organized greed is organized labor.” – Thomas Donahue, former AFL-CIO President
Today, on National Voter Registration Day, we need YOU to get organized by making sure you’re registered to vote!

It’s National Voter Registration Day! We may sound like a broken record at this point, but the stakes of this election are sky-high. That means we need to make our voices heard at the ballot box on November 5th so we can elect candidates who will fight for working Texans. Head to our Election Resources page to check your registration and find your polling place.

The stakes couldn’t be higher, and we need your help. Billionaires are lining up behind Donald Trump and J.D. Vance and pouring money into our state elections to elect corporate puppets who will do their anti-labor bidding.
Yes, it’s safe to say organized greed is organized – but so is organized labor! We’re activating thousands of union members across the state to talk to fellow union members and get out the vote for candidates who will fight for working Texans, from the statehouse to the White House. Will you join us?

Just four more days to go until the extended deadline for our Ruth Ellinger Leadership Academy! This is a year-long, comprehensive leadership development course for active union members to train as the next generation of Texas labor leaders. Make sure to apply by this Friday, September 20th.

Next week: Texas AFL-CIO Annual Golf Tournament

Next Wednesday, September 25th, we’ll be putting on our Annual Golf Tournament in Leander, just north of Austin! This is our main fundraiser for our scholarship program, which helps the children and relatives of union siblings. Buy your tickets and invite a friend!
|
Here in Texas and across the country, union members and allies will be the key to winning this election – and we’re going to deliver a resounding victory for pro-worker candidates up and down the ballot.
Will you join the fight?
