John,
The labor movement is making a comeback.
Just this morning, staffers in eight House offices filed to form the first unions in Congress.
And across the country at other major employers like Amazon, Starbucks, Apple, and Trader Joe’s, workers are winning some of the biggest victories for organized labor we’ve seen in a generation.
As a former union organizer who spent decades in the labor movement at the forefront of legislative fights for workers’ rights, Congressman Andy Levin knows how important it is to keep the spotlight focused on the people who this moment is truly about: the workers.
But right now, Andy’s taking on right-wing-funded super PACs who are doing everything they can to stop him from being re-elected and smash this resurgent wave of labor organizing.
In Andy’s district, it’s working people vs. corporations — but we're going to out-organize the dark money forces swooping in to claim this seat, and win. That’s why TODAY, July 18 at 6PM ET, we’re hosting a phone bank to show up for Andy and get out the vote to keep him in Congress.

As workers across the U.S. bear the full brunt of surging inflation and the rising costs of living amid overseas unrest and corporate price gouging — the surge in bottom-up, worker-driven organizing has been a silver lining.
But Andy’s opponent, Haley Stevens, has a history of doing gig companies’ bidding and is part of the broader movement to stamp out workers' efforts to secure livable wages, safe working conditions, and reliable benefits. If she wins, the rights and protections of gig workers in Michigan could be at stake.
Will you join us TODAY, July 18 at 6PM ET to phone bank for Andy? Just one call could make the difference in his race.
In solidarity,
Working Families Party
