We fight for members in the halls of Congress and in the courts, we represent employees facing discrimination or retaliation at the workplace, and we advocate for workers in the press and through grassroots community outreach. Please contact the Union office (afge1658@comcast.net) or any of our representatives if you receive notification from your Agency you don’t understand. If you are a dues-paying member, we continue to be here to assist! We will continue to post updates to this website under the Contracts Suspended link on the right.
