The AFT has convened its 80th convention at the Navy Pier in Chicago, where more than 3,000 delegates will vote on new AFT leadership and a recommendation to endorse Senator Barack Obama for president. Delegates have already taken up the Greater Than One theme of the convention by taking action in the Greater Together Action Center. In the Action Center, delegates have been able to send letters to Congress to demand collective bargaining rights for all public employees; sign petitions to honor the 500,000 school bus drivers through the creation of a U.S. postage stamp; donate to Chicago's Fresh Start schools; volunteer to work on the presidential campaign this fall; and much more.
You don't have to be a convention delegate to Take Action.
