Spokane RLC plans walks to support local candidates

SPOKANE — The Washington State Labor Council, AFL-CIO has already announced its Labor Neighbor schedule of neighborhood walks and phone fun banks to support labor-endorsed candidates in the Nov. 8 general election. Some regional Central Labor Councils are also organizing grassroots political action on behalf of union-backed candidates at the local level.

The Spokane Regional Labor Council, AFL-CIO is seeking union volunteers — starting this weekend — for Labor to Neighbor doorknocking. (Download/share this flyer.) Participants will talk to other union members about supporting local candidates who will fight for working families. Meet at 510 S. Elm Street (downstairs) for two doorknocking shifts from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and from noon to 4 p.m. on these dates:

  • SATURDAY, OCT. 1
  • SUNDAY, OCT. 2
  • SATURDAY, OCT. 8
  • SUNDAY, OCT 9

Please RSVP to SRLC’s Tina Morrison at tinam@spokanelabor.org or 509-327-7637, or contact her for more information.
