Did anyone else read the 2026 budget proposed by the other candidates? They are proposing to cut our organizer and the communications team that got us on national news, BUT RAISING DUES while all of us are facing job uncertainty (many of us have been separated)? Does this make sense to anyone? Why would be pay more for less services? Where is the money from the cuts going to?

The campaign is almost over! We are finishing our calls and hoping to have a Local that is led by people who are experienced in fighting for our jobs. Make sure to mail your ballot for the Truth and Transparency Slate TODAY to make sure your is counted.

We’re entering the final days of the AFGE Local 252 election, and every single ballot still sitting at home could decide the direction of our Local for years to come. Our union deserves to be led by people with the knowledge, competency, and professionalism to stand up to this administration and protect our jobs.

That’s exactly what the Truth & Transparency Slate represents. We show up prepared, we tell the truth, and we fight — without concession and without shortcuts.

If you haven’t mailed your ballot yet, please do it now. This is the last chance to make sure your voice is counted.
You can also help by reminding a colleague or two to check their mail and vote as well.

Thank you for being part of this moment and for choosing leadership defined by integrity and results.

In solidarity,
The Truth & Transparency Slate

Over the past several weeks, various rumors and misinformation have circulated about Brittany’s health and her availability to serve. These claims have caused confusion and concern, and Brittany felt it was time to address them openly, honestly, and in her own words.

I’m thankful for Brittany’s constant dedication to our Local and pray for her continued healing!

Maria Asturias found this picture from the 2018 AFGE National Convention were we served as delegates for the Department of Education after we lost our CBA during the first Trump Administration. I’m excited to share our discussion of the work it took to recover and come back even stronger in 2022 and 2024 (pictured below)

Very excited for a discussion with Maria Asturias. We’ll talk about what it was like to not have a CBA and have to take leave to represent BUEs at all-staff meetings. Our discussion will cover what the Local did to gain the ability to have our representatives participate in all-staff meetings and what we must do to make sure BUEs continue to have union leaders attend all staff meetings.”
