In Philly, we know what it means to fight for our Democracy. We’ve done it before and we’ll do it again. Make a plan to vote on or before Nov. 3rd and then join us in the streets on Saturday, Nov. 7th to defend our democracy and fight for the world workers deserve. #philly @afscme @phillyaflcio

AFSCME President Patrick Moran delivered a rousing first speech to close out the convention. For 90 years, our union has been how we fight for the respect and dignity we deserve. That fight is ours to carry together, and the next 90 years starts now.

Every worker deserves dignity, respect, and fair pay. The faces in these photos are hardworking people who keep the University of Pennsylvania running every day. They're sharing their stories because this fight isn't just about a contract. It's about being valued, respected, and paid fairly ->
