The public service workers are under attack and working families are having a hard time to make ends meet. The AFSCME Texas State Employees for instance is a union political fund that has come together to help people stand in unison protecting their rights ate benefits that we have won in our workplaces and in the communities.
Americas must stand up and take up the mantle to vote for leaders who will in turn fight for their rights. Americans need to take an active role and elect leaders who will advocate issues affecting working families. These include the need to have a balanced economy, secure the benefits of the workers, defend the workers rights, investing in public services and ensure there is a secure retirement plan for all workers.
