Arise member Jacob Morrison is a union member with the American Federation of Government Employees and president of the North Alabama Area Labor Council. He believes in organized labor as a social force that can bring the balance of power back to working people. Jacob deeply understands the power of collective action, and he thinks Arise’s broad coalition makes a powerful case for our shared agenda:
“Arise is one of the only organizations fighting for working people in Montgomery and pushing for policies that make the lives of workers better. On top of their advocacy and research, Arise engages with the community to help folks understand how to use the power they have. And when Arise staff unionized this year, I was impressed to see the organization voluntarily recognize their union. I’m proud to be a member of an organization that puts action behind their words.” Arise is committed to continuing to support working people alongside Jacob. And with your help, we can.
