10 Mar Facebook LIVE Event Highlights Importance of PRO Act

Posted at 14:19h in Organizing, PRO Act by

Yesterday, the BCTGM hosted a live political discussion for member leaders and organizers on Facebook. The panel consisted of staff and activists from both the BCTGM and AFL-CIO (left to right above):

  • Michelle Ellis (moderating), Digital Media Dir., BCTGM
  • Harry Kaiser, Political Dir./Asst. to President Anthony Shelton, BCTGM
  • Richard Womack, Asst. to Pres. Richard Trumka, AFL-CIO
  • John Price, Organizing Dir., BCTGM
  • David Driscoll-Knight, East Region Field Dir., AFL-CIO
  • Margaret McLaughlin, International Rep./Organizer, BCTGM
  • Jared Cummings, Rank & File Organizer, BCTGM Local 53 Exec. Board Member

In the preview below, Harry Kaiser and John Price articulate the importance of signing the PRO Act into law – one of many topics covered.

The BCTGM applauds last night’s passage of the PRO Act in the House of Representatives, and stands ready to put the pressure on the Senate to finish the job. Visit our PRO Act resource, bctgm.org/proact, to call or write your U.S. Senators and tell them to PASS THE PRO ACT!

The full audio of this discussion will be available on the BCTGM’s podcast, The BCTGM Voices Project, on April 6th. Click here to subscribe on your favorite player and be notified!
