Today's Labor Quote: Sue Carney

“At the core, labor unions are working men and women, unified as one force. Despite any personal differences that may exist between us, we have banded together to protect and improve the lives of workers. We rise up together for the greater good. We defend one another like family.”

Carney is a longtime member and leader in the American Postal Workers Union.

JOIN ACT TODAY!

Every day you work hard for a living and should be able to make ends meet at the end of the month without worrying if you will have a career and retirement when the time comes. Your hard work has made your Unit / Section and the Government successful, it's only fair that you should be able to expect and collect what was originally granted to you as a Federal Employee (Technician) when you were first hired and when you first enlisted as a guardsman / reservist; you should be treated fairly for the work you do. You are of value to the Government and American Taxpayer.

Do you know what your rights are as a Federal Employee? Do you want fairness and respect at work? Are you scared to talk about joining ACT at work? Do you think you can be fired for joining ACT? Are you a Federal Employee who is tired of putting up with bad management? You need to join ACT.

Joining ACT means you have knowledgeable advocates on your side when speaking with management and fighting for you at the National Level.
