Political Efforts Scorecard
This election represented a watershed moment for our democracy, as voters determined the future of our nation and our state. Local 1000 members were at the forefront of that fight, organizing phone banks, texting voters, and volunteering their time to show that every vote truly matters and demand that every vote be counted in the race for President. Thanks to that hard work, we helped usher Joe Biden and Kamala Harris into the White House.
