Service + Solidarity Spotlight: Union Members Hit the Pavement in Atlanta to Bring Home Election Wins

Working people across the United States have stepped up to help out our friends, neighbors and communities during these trying times. In our regular Service + Solidarity Spotlight series, we’ll showcase one of these stories every day. Here’s today’s story.

Members of Communications Workers of America (CWA) Local 3204 and SEIU as well as allied organizations and community partners gathered on Saturday for a weekend of action geared toward informing the community and voters about what’s at stake with this year’s election. The joint canvass event in Atlanta was supported by leaders of the Georgia State AFL-CIO and AFL-CIO staff members. Union volunteers successfully canvassed neighborhoods around the Atlanta area to increase voter support for pro-labor candidates in this key battleground state.
