AFL-CIO Women Get It Done Summit

  • AFL-CIO Union Women Get It Done Virtual Summit Oct. 1, 7 p.m. ET

RSVP Here
 

Union women have never been more important than we are right now in mobilizing for the Nov. 5 election. That’s why we’re inviting you to join us on Oct. 1 as we host a nationwide virtual event, where union women from across our movement will hear from each other, speak their truth and affirm that this fight unites us rather than divides us.  As we head into the final weeks of the election, we will come together to discuss what’s at stake and the crucial role that women will play in our struggle for victory in November and drive home the importance of Vice President Kamala Harris’ election to the White House. Please mark your calendar, invite your friends—and don’t miss it!

Be on the lookout on the Take Action tab under the Actions and Events Menu bar in the red navigation bar up on top each week for volunteer opportunities for activists like you!

We’ve got a lot of work ahead of us the next two months, but like Michelle Obama told us: “If we start feeling tired, if we start feeling that dread creeping back in, we’ve got to pick ourselves up, throw water on our face, and what?—DO SOMETHING.

We are riding high off the energy of the Convention. Let’s keep up the momentum—can you sign up today for a volunteer shift?
