About the Political Action fund

$10 a month from 10,000 members

 

Harry Bridges understood that political action was an important weapon for the working class. We need your help to make the ILWU Political Action Fund an important tool in our arsenal to give workers a voice in Washington and fight for interests ILWU members.  Our goal is to reach $1 million in the ILWU-Political Action fund so we can support candidates that are willing to stand up and fight for the interests of workers. We can reach that goal if 10,000 members donate $10 a month.
