Strong families make America work. And nothing makes our union family stronger than open lines of communication. Stay close to your union family this year by ensuring the personal and non-government email, phone, and mailing address we have for you is correct.
When you update your profile anytime this January, you’ll be automatically entered in a drawing to win a premium AFGE throw blanket. That’s a $40 value! Each week up to 5 names will be drawn and winners will be announced on Facebook. To keep up with weekly drawings and to see if you’re the lucky winner, follow AFGE on Facebook.
