Tri-Counties
Making the Difference: From the June Primary to the November General Election!
The way we win elections is by talking with voters. And with over 500 shifts as volunteers in consistent door knocking canvasses, and marathon phone-banks, SEIU 721 helped make the difference for our endorsed candidates by running a winning member-to-member voter contact, education and GOTV operation!

Statement from President Bob Schoonover on our nation’s first statewide $15 min wage law:
The movement launched by fast food workers three years ago has now completely changed the conversation around income inequality in this country. Today’s historic bill signing shows that when working people unite to fight for living wages and a voice on the job, we win.
Together, we celebrate this unprecedented legislation – but make no mistake: it was Local 721 and the Fight for $15 coalition that led the way. The courage, tenacity, and dedication shown by fast food workers and their allies has made our call for $15 and union rights a reality.
