A word from the Area Council President
Our actions in AC 3 remain focused on mobilization. Now more than ever, we must stand together, show solidarity and keep our boots on the ground to defend workers’ rights. Every collective action makes a difference and shows the strength of our union.
I’m also delighted to see that AC 3’s news and initiatives are now being shared on the website. This will help us keep members in the loop, showcase our work and build stronger connections between activists.
