Dear John,
We know all too well that federal workers all across the country are under attack.
Tens of thousands of hardworking people who run the programs and services that working families all rely on have been mistreated or abruptly fired.
People ARE rising up—but the workers who are being targeted need help. That’s why we’re proud to support Rise Up: Federal Workers Legal Defense Fund.
Rise Up: Federal Workers Legal Defense Network is a new effort organized by AFGE and groups like the AFL-CIO, We The Action and Democracy Forward to bring together thousands of lawyers to help federal workers understand their rights so they can get the justice they deserve.
AFGE along with allied organizations are already in court, but DOGE is counting on recently fired working people lacking the money to afford the lawyers they need.
Here’s how you can help:
-
Are you a federal worker who needs legal help? Fill out our confidential form to be connected with our network of lawyers.
-
Are you a lawyer who can help our federal workers? Get trained and join the network to help federal workers understand their rights. [Our first webinar explaining how you can help is now available—RSVP here.]
-
Can you tell your friends, family and networks about this new resource? Share this email and link so as many people as possible find out about our work.
-
Can you chip in to support our work? Your donation will help federal workers across the country get the free legal help they need.
Federal workers power critical programs like Medicare and Social Security, run our national parks, inspect our food and medicine, and keep us safe from accidents and disasters.
As taxpayers and Americans, we must demand justice for these workers. Thank you for helping us rise up.
In Solidarity,
AFGE
