In honor of this summer’s 40th National Convention, AFGE is collecting a special-edition online cookbook of member-submitted recipes. This is a fun, new project to show off our union’s cooking skills and swap recipes in solidarity.
These should be “tried and true” recipes that any home cook can follow. We would like to showcase the online cookbook for all members at our upcoming 40th National Convention and beyond.
Recipes should include: your name, your local number and district, your recipe’s name, and easy step-by-step ingredients and directions. We would also like you to submit a picture of yourself preparing the meal or a head shot of yourself in order to have a visual aid in the cookbook. A picture of the competed dish is also acceptable.

Wisconsin Assembly passes right-to-work bill after 19 hours of debate

Brothers and Sisters,
It’s a sad day for labor. Right to Work has passed out of both Chambers and is now headed to the Governor’s desk who is likely to sign it on Monday. The most appalling thing is how this state legislature has treated its citizens during this process (not that we didn’t see this behavior in 2011). Yesterday just minutes after debate began on the House floor, Speaker Robin Vos ordered the chambers cleared, kicking out hundreds of citizens from around the state who had come to witness the debate. We saw similar actions in the State Senate.

Brothers and Sisters-
After 20 years, NAFTA is one of the biggest job and environment killers the US has ever seen. And the same big corporations are at it again! The Trans-Pacific Partnership Free Trade Agreement (TPP) is set to become the largest so-called free trade agreement in the world, yet it has been negotiated behind closed doors by corporate lobbyists and government bureaucrats. That's not democracy! Amazingly, there are a few Democratic Members of Congress who haven't committed to opposing Fast Track, including Mike Quigley. Join us as we demand to have a voice in trade policy and the Congressman stand up for his constituents!
Saturday February 1st
11:30 AM Meet up at Jonquil Park @ Wrightwood and Sheffield near the DePaul Campus
March to Congressman Mike Quigley's Office
3223 N Sheffield Avenue
12:00 PM Rally at Quigley's Office
Join us to tell Congressman Quigley to do what is right! Tweet him @RepMikeQuigley: Say No to the TPP!
