AFT Political Action Fund
We have a union to fight for fair wages,
affordable healthcare, a secure retirement, and fair and equitable treatment
on the job. However, the ability of our local to bargain a fair contract
Elected officials decide the laws by which we bargain and enforce our contract.
They also often decide if there is enough money in the budget for us to get
a cost-of-living raise or have access to healthcare.
That's why the real work of the union goes beyond the local community and that's
why we engage collectively in politics through AFT-Oregon Political Action Fund
Our collective voice sends a powerful message and impacts the decisions that
politicians make. Political strength helps ensure that we have fair contracts
and a strong local union.
