From Process to Policy, OPEIU Opposes New SCOTUS Appointment
The Office and Professional Employees International Union (OPEIU), AFL-CIO, opposes and is mobilizing against President Trump’s decision to nominate a new Supreme Court justice just five weeks before a presidential election. The process of nominating a new justice at this time is unsupported by a majority of Americans, and threatens to uproot civil rights and liberties most Americans consider foundational.
Beyond the process-oriented issues with nominating a new justice before the American people cast their ballots on Nov. 3, Judge Amy Coney Barrett’s anti-worker record will further jeopardize the already unstable future of working families across the U.S.
Are you registered to vote?
Today, Sept. 22, is National Voter Registration Day. With so much at stake during the Nov. 3 elections, it’s never been more important to register to vote, make a plan to vote … and then VOTE, either by mail or in-person.
Visit GO.AFLCIO.ORG/REGISTER to see if you’re registered to vote, find your polling place and make casting your ballot on Nov. 3 as easy as possible.
OPEIU Mourns the Loss of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg
OPEIU mourns the loss of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. For decades, Justice Ginsburg played a pivotal role in expanding the rights of working people, women and all those without a voice in the nation she recognized as tipped in favor of the already wealthy and powerful. Her lifetime of work will continue to serve as inspiration for us all, especially young women and men who rightly considered her a role model and inspiration.
The stakes are too high to force through the nomination of a new justice just six weeks before the general election. We owe it to Justice Ginsburg to respect her last wishes and refuse to allow her seat to be filled until the American people vote on Nov. 3. OPEIU recognizes what’s at stake this election, and pledges to devote all its energies in the fight for justice and equality.
Join Today’s Vigil to Honor Birmingham Church Bombing Victims
Today, Sept. 15, marks the 57th anniversary of the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing in Birmingham, Alabama. The AFL-CIO plans to honor the legacy of the four young girls who perished that day – Addie Mae Collins, Cynthia Wesley, Carole Robertson, and Carol Denise McNair – with a virtual candlelight vigil today at noon. The AFL-CIO is also calling on members to sign a ten-point pledge for social, racial and economic justice.
No evil is extinguished unless good people act. OPEIU calls on all those who believe racial and economic justice are intimately intertwined to take action today to stand up against white supremacy.
