From putting the first man on the moon to ensuring your food is safe to eat, federal employees make profound differences in our lives every day.
Our union is proud to get to represent these fine men and women and help them do their jobs better serving the American people.
We have released four videos highlighting the critical work performed by federal employees, from serving our veterans and securing our borders to preserving our national treasures and holding employers accountable for safe worksites.
Each of the videos ends with the tagline, “We’ve been there for you. Be there for us.”
