When we organize we WIN!
The Huron Valley Central Labor council got an early start on organizing activities this electoral cycle. When a transportation millage was put on the ballot for the May 6th election the Huron Valley Central Labor council saw this as an opportunity to engage it’s members about an issue that would have great benefits including more jobs for the region.
We would like to thank all of the labor and community groups that helped make this victory possible:
- Michigan AFL-CIO
- Transportation Workers United
- Michigan Nurses Association
- United Auto Workers
- Lecturer Employee Organization (LEO)
- Graduate Employee Organization (GEO)
- Firefighters
- Iron Workers
- Working America
- MOSES
- State Representative Jeff Irwin
- Washtenaw Community Action Team (WCAT)
- Eastern Michigan University Federation of Teachers
Together the Huron Valley Central Labor Council hosted 4 phone banks a weekend GOTV operation, emailed thousands of activist and mailed to all labor households in the district.
Congratulations to all of the members of the Huron Valley Central Labor Council.
