Public workers have felt the brunt of multi-millionaires’ greed, with cuts to key public services hurting us all, and understaffing across cities and counties forcing so many to work more for less. Voting is how we make sure working families have the opportunity to do better. Our union voice matters!
So show your power and make your voice heard at the ballot box! Vote for candidates who will stand up for working families and make sure your fellow union members vote, too!

Court Workers Win in Superior Court Judge Races
While many people will be talking about election results for various offices in the California June Primary, I wanted to take a moment to congratulate LA County Superior Court Workers. All of our endorsed candidates for LA County Superior Court Judge made it into the top two yesterday, and will go on to the general election. I want to especially congratulate all the union members that took the time to interview the candidates at the union endorsement town hall meeting back in February.
San Bernardino Courts TA!
We’ve reached a tentative agreement with San Bernardino Courts!
