The IBEW 2222 Committee On Political Education (C.O.P.E.) discussed requests for endorsement and financial support for candidates seeking office. The committee has unanimously agreed to continue our policy of endorsing only those officials and candidates who actively support our organization and our efforts.

We are focusing our endorsements on Senate and Legislative candidates who have signed on to our Bills to organize State House Legislative staffers. Moreover, it is important for candidates to express their support for our bill aiming to extend unemployment benefits to striking workers. These bills are necessary not only for the long-term survival of our local but also for the well-being of our members and bargaining team in the event of a strike.

We believe that the success of these legislative efforts is crucial for our Union, and we invite you to join us in our efforts. Your support can make a significant impact on the success of our bills.

If you have not done so already, please consider joining COPE and contributing to these efforts. Your involvement will play a crucial role in advancing our cause and ensuring that we have elected officials who genuinely support the needs and concerns of our Members and their families.
