The Dallas AFL-CIO continues get-out-the-vote activities on Saturday and Monday. Labor’s endorsements are posted on our web site.
Start Early
Door-to-door canvassing begins at 9AM Saturday, March 1, an hour ahead of previous efforts. Phone banking on Monday will begin at 5PM. Election sign distribution is also Monday evening. All events start on the 2nd floor at 1408 N Washington. Everyone is invited to participate.
Working families are way ahead as we fight our way into the last round of the primary elections. Early vote turnout has far surpassed the 2016 numbers, and turnout is what working families need. One last round to victory on March 3!
Communication Is Critical
The Dallas AFL-CIO initiates a new Digital Organizing effort immediately after the primary elections. We would like to have representation from every affiliated union as we build a network of labor communicators. The progressive movement relies on digital communications.
