Working people win when we turn out to vote in large numbers. The Nov. 8 election will not only determine the next president, it will determine the makeup of Congress, as well as state and local offices. In many places, the election will decide the outcome of ballot questions that directly affect the labor movement, such as minimum wage laws and anti-union “right-to–work” laws.  

Please help get out the vote. You can volunteer in a variety of ways:

• Canvassing
• Phone Banking
• Assisting with Mailings
• Get Out the Vote

You can also register to vote or look up the voting laws in each state.  If you have family, friends or neighbors who have questions, need to register, or request an absentee ballot, we encourage you to direct them to this valuable resource.

The APWU is challenging the restrictions on postal workers’ use of social media for political activity, but employees should adhere to these guidelines in the meantime.
