| AFFI Helps Launch Massive Media Campaign |
The AFFI has joined with other Illinois public employee unions in an unprecedented demonstration of solidarity as we work to protect our worker benefits.
As the General Assembly enters the final weeks of its Spring 2011 session, this coalition of public employee unions will launch an aggressive media campaign in every one of our state’s media markets. AFFI members will be able to monitor the media campaign right here. We will provide our members with stories, commentary and links to news as it happens.
This may well be the most closely knit effort by Illinois public employee unions to fight back at efforts to cut funding and reduce benefits for working Illinois families.
Among the public employee unions we have joined in this effort are the Fraternal Order of Police, Police Benevolent and Protective Association, AFSCME, the Illinois Education Association and the Illinois Federation of Teachers.
As the AFFI expressed in our own newspaper advertising campaign, public employees in Illinois are going to see to it that the promises made to us by our employers are kept.
Illinois firefighters have always taken fierce pride in giving our word as our bond. We will continue to keep our communities safe from fire, hazards and provide medical emergency care. In return, all we ask is that our elected officials abide by their promise. A promise made to us when we began employment. A promise each and every one of our members have upheld throughout their careers.
Please continue to keep us apprised of any related developments in your community.
