This is the final weekend before next Tuesday’s mid-term elections, and the local labor movement is hitting the doors and phones hard to make sure working people turn out to vote. Whether you live in the District, Maryland or Virginia, there’s a labor walk or phonebank nearby that can use your help: click here for complete details. You still can make a big difference this election. In addition to area labor walks and phonebanks, you can pick up the phone and make sure as many of your friends and neighbors show up to vote as possible. Nothing gets people to the polls like a reminder from someone they know that the election is important, and making calls is easy with the AFL-CIO’s Friends and Neighbors tool. Start making calls now and help make sure that election night is a good night for working families!
