In October, at the AFL-CIO's 2017 Convention in St. Louis, our own AFSCME Local 199 president, Se'Adoreia "CeeCee" Brown, stood up in support of keeping the right to vote a fundamental American value.
President Brown, who also serves as an AFSCME International Vice President, spoke out strongly in favor of Resolution 14. The Resolution makes it a priority of all AFL-CIO affiliates to promote ways that support the principal that "voting in elections should be as convenient, fair and secure as possible."
