Workers at the ACLU of Maryland have joined OPEIU Local 2. The 14-member unit, comprised of organizers, attorneys, legal fellows and assistants, and policy specialists, won an election on July 31. “The staff at the ACLU of Maryland take exercising our rights as employees as seriously as the work we produce on behalf of our clients, Maryland residents, and the broader ACLU of Maryland family,” said the unit’s organizing committee in a statement. “We hope that the ACLU of Maryland will hold itself to the same values we use to fight for our civil liberties every day and apply those values to our internal workplace reform.” The ACLU of Maryland is an affiliate of the national American Civil Liberties Union, a progressive nonprofit that works to preserve and maintain individual freedoms. This is the latest non-profit to join Local 2, following the Solidarity Center, Planned Parenthood, the National Democratic Institute, and PartnersGlobal. photo courtesy OPEIU 2
