In case you don’t know, SEIU1021 puts a lot of effort [and money] into supporting the election of political candidates who support union workers. A portion of our meeting will be about the upcoming November elections – not just the President of the United States and a CA US Senator, but Mayor of San Francisco, 6 Supervisors, 4 Board of Education Commissioners, State Assembly Members, State Senators, lots of ballot measures, ranked choice voting and more!
These elections will affect you, your job, your family and your friends. Please plan to attend.
Our tentative agenda is shown below.
I will be attending via Zoom and I hope to see many familiar faces on Wednesday.
Best regards & in solidarity,
Shellie
