Unit 1 and Unit 4 members push the political pedal to the metal
7:44 AM - October 1, 2012
On Thursday, September 20, over 80 Sacramento members and staff
found a festive way to conduct some serious business – educate
voters on the dangers of Proposition 32.
Unit 1 member organizer Dee Dee Munson and Unit 4 member
organizer Lorraine Dewitt created a night of training, raffles,
poster-making and all around good fun to get more members
politically involved.
“The turnout tonight is impressive. Over the years I have come to
admire the work that our members can accomplish when we come
together like this,” said Munson. “The more people get involved,
the closer we come to accomplishing our goal – defeating Prop.
32!”
November 6 is fast approaching, and members and staff are
connecting with voters at an unprecedented rate. Over 1,500 phone
banking and precinct walking shifts have been completed by
members and staff. Volunteers have made over 100,000 calls and
have knocked on over 3,500 doors.
Phone banks and precinct walking sites are organized in many
locations including Local 1000 offices and several mobile phone
banks at restaurants and homes.
