BROTHERS AND SISTERS
I have taken a brief leave of absence from the Cook County Public Defenders Office to devote full time to our union’s effort to elect Barack Obama the next President of the United States.
Hopefully, you are now aware of one such endeavor – the “Get on the Bus!” campaign – in which all AFSCME members have been encouraged to travel to neighboring states to educate union families about Barack Obama’s historic campaign and his exemplary labor record. If an out-of-state trip is not realistic for you, I am coordinating efforts locally to recruit volunteers to conduct union household visits or telephone banking on behalf of Barack Obama and Dan Seals (who is running for Congress against incumbent, Mark Kirk, in the 10th District).
If you would like to take advantage of these opportunities to get involved in this truly transformative election, please contact me immediately to discuss your options.
