How One Group of Young Democrats proved that getting involved is the best way to live our values.

Hey y'all,

Many of us celebrated Labor Day on Monday by taking time to relax with family and friends (virtually I hope). One group of Young Democrats embraced the day's spirit and officially joined Teamsters Local 728 in Atlanta. We are so proud of the Young Democrats working for the Democratic Party of Georgia's coordinated campaign and Legislative Victory Fund.

If you're interested in unionizing a campaign you work on, please join The Movement School and Campaign Workers Guild to learn how at their event, "The Movement Will Be Unionized" TONIGHT at 7pm

RSVP at: mvmt.school/union

Please join us on Saturday September 19th for a phone bank shift with other Young Democrats and these two super stars to turn Georgia blue!
