Celebrating Election Victories

In November, Massachusetts voters elected a wave of pro-labor, pro-transit candidates who value our union and the workers we represent. We're proud that so many of Local 589's endorsed candidates won their races.

We're also proud that the Fair Share Amendment passed, creating a fairer tax system to invest in our public transit, our schools, and our future. This will help us meet the challenges facing our transportation system and improve the lives of working people.

With some races decided by a single vote, every vote mattered. Thank you to all our members who voted, volunteered, and made a difference. When union workers have a voice in our elections, we deliver results.
