VIDEO: In Memoriam—Rest in Power

Due in large measure to the coronavirus pandemic, our AFSCME Council 31 family lost too many lives since we gathered at our last convention in October 2019—some due to COVID, some to the stresses of this very challenging time. We honor their memories and will keep their spirit alive by fighting for a better future for all working people. This memorial video was aired at convention on October 15, 2021 and includes a beautiful performance by Renee Barnes who is on the staff of our international union.
