John,
Over the past three-plus years since our last national convention, AFGE members have racked up a considerable list of victories for federal and D.C. government workers. Read all about them in the latest edition of the Government Standard!
Our collective achievements are even more impressive when you consider the hostile labor environment we faced under the previous administration. Despite deliberate attempts by the nation’s top political leaders to wipe out our union and our collective bargaining rights, we have not only survived but THRIVED.
Yet we have no intention of stopping – which is why we rallied in D.C. during our legislative conference in March, to fight for fair treatment and a voice in our working conditions. You can read more about our legislative fights to come in this issue and learn about those members who are making a difference for all of us.
Also inside this issue, you’ll read:
- What AFGE members are doing to save dozens of VA medical facilities from closure.
- How the massive transfer of DoD health care workers to the Defense Health Agency will affect AFGE locals.
- How AFGE added more than 2,200 employees to our union family through a single organizing victory.
