Workers Can Win This Election, But Only If We Organize

OPEIU members and their local unions are hard at work across the country ensuring we break the anti-worker majority in Congress and elect pro-labor candidates up and down the ballot. We are knocking doors in swing districts in Michigan, backing up-and-coming leaders in California, and investing in union members running in Ohio, Tennessee and Pennsylvania.

Is Your Voter Registration Up To Date?

Have you moved since the last time you voted? Are you sure your voter registration is up to date?

Voter registration deadlines are fast approaching across the country, so now is the time to be sure you are registered to vote at your current address. Fortunately, there is an easy tool to check your status, get registered or update your registration and look up the specific dates and rules for voting in your area.

We have a critical chance to stop the anti-worker policies out of Washington, D.C., that have raised prices on everything from groceries to healthcare and left us less safe on the job. Union members know there is power in standing together, and we want to be sure you are at the polls on Nov. 3 with your OPEIU sisters and brothers across the country.

Make sure you, your family and your co-workers are ready to get your voices heard on Election Day by checking your voter registration status today.

What Unions Need to Know to Support Members with DACA

What is DACA?

Many unions have members with Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA). Created in 2012, DACA is a form of immigration relief for people who came to the U.S. as children and who meet a number of other eligibility criteria. With DACA, they receive work authorization for two years at a time, as well as have protection from deportation. While there have been a number of threats to the DACA program, and the program is not currently open to new applicants, there are still about half a million people who have DACA, and who can seek to renew it every two years.
