	COMMITTEE ON POLITICAL EDUCATION

Paul English Vice Chairman		Michael Donahue Vice Chairman
	Brendan Keogh Chairman
Daniel Slyman Treasurer		Patrick Atwell Recording Sec.

The primary function of the Local 2222 Committee On Political Education (C.O.P.E.) is to elect men and women who aggressively work for pro-worker legislation.

The public leaders we elect to office make decisions that affect our lives. These lawmakers shape the laws that govern us, the taxes we pay and the services our government provides. By taking a lead role in federal, state, municipal and local elections, collectively, the labor movement can elect more pro-union candidates and subsequently create a more pro-worker political climate in the Commonwealth.
