Fairbanks Labor Walks - Get Involved!

10:00 AM - 2:00 PM @ LIUNA Local 942 Hall
Location: 2740 Davis Road, Fairbanks, Alaska, AK - 99709

Recurring Event: Occurs Every week on Saturday, till Sep 30, 2023 (Total 3 weeks)

he Local 71 - LIUNA Political Action Committee (PAC) is run by members for members!

We announce at every General Membership Meeting that any Local 71 Member in good standing who contributes to the PAC can invite candidates to talk to us, and vote to endorse or contribute financially to electing candidates who support your jobs, your wages and benefits, and your rights on the job.

The Local 71 PAC met on August 31^st and made only the following endorsements:

Scott Crass for FNSB Assembly: https://www.crassforfairbanks.com/ & Meredith Maple for FNSB School Board: https://www.mapleforschoolboard.com/

We have the power to elect people who can make the right decisions to improve our jobs, our pay, and the future for our families. That takes involvement! The stakes are too high to sit by...

When candidates get to know our members, they make better decisions affecting our lives and livelihoods. We have set a goal of improving our presence through volunteering in the next two years, first with municipal elections, and next year with statewide races.

Below is the schedule for organized Labor Walks in Fairbanks. We understand that not everyone can meet this schedule, and that's why we have many more opportunities for you to be involved. We are keeping a detailed volunteer record to report to LIUNA International & we're rewarding our members who show up!

Let us know if you can volunteer for any of the following items at NRrep@local71.com so that we can add you to the list and you can get credit:
- Labor Walks (sometimes this involves knocking on doors, sometimes it is just leaving brochures & we are contacting union members on these walks)
- Driving
- Phone calling
- Folding literature
- Waving signs on street corners
- Assembling or delivering signs
- Other
We want everyone running for office at any level to know that our members matter!

Feel the Power, use your power, BE the power!
