A new report from the @EconomicPolicy Institute shows that tripling union membership would shift more than $1 trillion to U.S. workers. Higher union membership means a stronger economy and a better future for working families. theguardian.com/us-news/2026/j…

AFSCME members haven’t just witnessed the last 90 years of history—we’ve helped shape it. From the Memphis sanitation strike to organizing cultural workers, our union has always been powered by activists and fighters who stand up for working people. afscme90th.org

Are you feeling the heat of rising energy bills? Individual households will pay $460 more per year for their energy costs by 2035 thanks to policy changes made by the Trump administration and their backers in Congress. Working families deserve better. cnn.com/2026/07/07/cli…

When workers at the Geneva Public Library District in Illinois decided to form a union, they turned to AFSCME Council 31. The workers want a voice on the job and a real say in the decisions that shape their workplace. afscme.org/blog/public-li…

The Big Beautiful Bill was great for billionaires. Now one year later, it’s a bill that working people can’t afford. Higher costs. Fewer services. More tax breaks for the wealthy. Are you feeling the effects of the bill? Tell us about it: act.afscme.org/forms/affordab…

The Trump Administration is holding hostage a bipartisan bill that would help lower housing costs for renters and buyers across the country. Why? So, the admin can try to force Congress to make it harder to vote for working people. axios.com/2026/06/24/tru…

There’s nothing to celebrate about this anniversary. One year since the Trump administration passed the so-called “Big Beautiful Bill,” we headed down to the National Mall to check in with people & see how they were doing. Spoiler alert: Not great.

President Saunders: "AFSCME members targeted by this ‘reorganization’ provide essential services that strengthen rural communities and support America’s food supply.”
AFSCME@AFSCME

NEW: As part of our ongoing lawsuit with @AFGENational, we are challenging the unlawful “reorganization” of the USDA by the admin. Working families deserve strong federal agencies that will put food on their tables, not tax breaks for billionaires. afscme.org/press/releases…

Pres. Saunders: "Instead of making the cost-of-living crisis even worse by shrinking the child care market & refusing to contain the cost of child care for working people, the administration should abandon this harmful policy & invest in these essential services & our families.”
AFSCME@AFSCME

BREAKING: Together with @seiu and @seiu925 we are filing a lawsuit challenging the administration’s arbitrary new regulation that threatens to raise child care costs for low-income families & hurt child care providers.
