Political activists drive progressive agenda

UAW Community Action Program (CAP) activists in local unions are the muscle and enthusiasm of our union’s political and community programs.

The UAW’s efforts to improve the quality of life for working families reach beyond the workplace and bargaining table to political and social action at the community, state and national levels.

Whether it’s at the local school board or a national office, worker-friendly decision-makers make an important difference.

Through CAP we’re fighting for better schools for our kids, secure health care and pensions for retirees, tougher workplace health and safety standards, clean air and water, stronger workers’ compensation and unemployment insurance laws and fairer taxes.

The UAW’s effectiveness in the political arena depends on the active involvement of UAW members like you.
