Political action is vital for the growth of the middle class, the International Union of Painters and Allied Trades and the rest of the organized labor movement.
The time each of us puts into supporting candidates and initiatives for the advancement of our proud cause can have a profound effect on not only our lives but the lives of all working families – union and non-union.
