The Massachusetts AFL-CIO has been working hard to implement its Target 5000 Program to elect union members to all levels of political office. That is why on Friday September 25th we will be kicking-off our First Annual Union Candidate School. This program has been a priority of the Massachusetts AFL-CIO’s Strategic Plan for years, and this year will be the first of many.

This Candidate School is open to and perfect for any union member who currently holds public office and wants to run for re-election or run for higher office, has considered running for public office, or has unsuccessfully run for public office and would like to run again. This training will be led by campaign expert Murray Fishel, President of nationally recognized Grassroots Political Campaigns, and coordinated by the staff of the Massachusetts AFL-CIO.

WHEN: Friday, September 25th from 12:00 PM - 7:00 PM

WHERE: Newton Marriott

Some of the most important political decisions for working families are made at the local level and the Massachusetts Labor Movement works hard to elect people who will be a voice for labor to local public office.
