It was a year unlike any other for AFSCME and our members like you who are on the frontlines of the fight for a strong middle class and public services.
Take a moment to watch our year-end video and celebrate how we all fought back against attacks on working families in 2011.
The struggle will continue next year, but we’ve shown what we can do when we raise our voices together.
On the 75th anniversary of the American Federation of State, County, Municipal and County Employees (AFSCME), and as one of the Friends of Labor, I, Steve Weiner, want to say how grateful I am to my union. Because of the justice AFSCME has brought to many American workers, I had a job as a Computer Specialist for many years at the NYC Department of Education that had dignity and was well paid.
Beginning in the 1930s, there were many courageous people who fought to get government workers decent working hours, health care, and pensions–something every worker in the private and public sector deserve. I thank these men and women very much. You can learn more about them and the history of AFSCME; click here.
