Political Action

COPE

What is C.O.P.E.? Committee On Political Education is the CWA's political action committee, which donates money to the campaigns of political candidates who support labor and working families with their stands on issues and their votes on specific legislation. It is essential that we have Representatives, Senators, Judges and politicians at ALL levels of government who are supportive of working people and their families and who will support laws which will keep the workplace safe and protect workers. If we do not have politicians in office who support labor, then laws get passed which hurt the working people of this nation. This directly affects YOU!

Big business outspends labor by a considerable margin, because they KNOW how important it is to have politicians in office who will support their best interests.

See your CWA representative or C.O.P.E. Chairperson. Many CWA contracts provide for deductions for C.O.P.E., and you can give as little as 1 dollar a pay period.
