The governor’s illegal step freeze and continued foot-dragging are getting news coverage statewide.

Union members mobilized to win the right to use sick time to care for family members plus a pay increase retroactive to May 2017.

Desperate Bruce Rauner is running a false commercial that claims to be from an AFSCME leader.

AFSCME member and state employee Ty Ellison received a letter in the mail from the IPI, professing to want to improve his life by helping him quit his union. He isn’t having it.

The nearly 5,000 county employees in 14 AFSCME local unions voted overwhelmingly to ratify a new contract, capping more than a year of very challenging negotiations.

The Illinois General Election in November is critical for the defense of workers’ rights in our state and beyond. Make your voice heard and VOTE! Early voting begins on September 27.

Two more longtime AFSCME members are speaking out against the Rauner-funded IPI for misusing their images in its anti-union campaign. "I don't support what they're doing and I think they're defaming my character," Velma Henderson says.

Imagine being a longtime union activist, then seeing your image stolen to promote an anti-union agenda. That's what happened to AFSCME Local 2806 President Darneice Cooper.
