Voting Is a Union Value—Get Registered Today
National Voter Registration Day 2025 is quickly approaching on September 16th! For union members, registering to vote is an essential step in ensuring our voices are heard, both in the workplace and beyond. We recognize that our collective power is not only in negotiating for improved wages, benefits, and working conditions but also in actively engaging in the political arena. Elections shape policies that influence labor laws, workers' rights, the economy, and more. By registering to vote, union members guarantee that they have a direct impact on these decisions, from local elections to national contests that can shape the future of the labor movement.
National Voter Registration Day serves as a reminder to all union members about the significance of their vote. It presents an opportunity to motivate fellow union members to register and participate in our democracy. Whether it involves voting for candidates who advocate for pro-worker policies or voting on initiatives that directly affect labor rights, being registered to vote is one of the most powerful ways we can safeguard and enhance our rights as union members.
On National Voter Registration Day, RWDSU members nationwide can unite to ensure that every member is aware of how to register, when to vote, and why their involvement is crucial. We can assist in eliminating obstacles to voting and guarantee that all workers have access to the polls, while also conveying a strong message that unions advocate for a voice in every decision that affects our lives.
