Do you think your union needs new leadership and a new direction? Are you ready to roll up your sleeves and get to work?
This book draws from decades of experience of labor activists who have run for office. It covers topics like: how union elections work, building a campaign team, flyers, mailings, raising money, getting out the vote, the law, and what to do after you win office.
If you think we just need new faces at the union hall, then this is not the book for you. But if you want to run a campaign that unites members to build power, then you’ll benefit from the advice in this book.
