We mourn and honor the five AFSCME-represented law enforcement officers who were killed in the line of the duty last year. Their names were added to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial this week. More than 100 AFSCME members attended various Law Enforcement Week events. (fb)

AFSCME members in Austin are fighting back against reckless cuts to the federal budget could put Austin, Texas, in a $22 million hole and devastate public health programs like immunizations, refugee health care and community outreach. They stood with their co-workers and allies on the steps of City Hall to send a clear message: public health workers are vital, and the services they provide must be protected. (fb)
