Virginia Public Service Workers: Our Time Is Now!
We won the freedom to form a union and bargain collectively. Now it’s time to use it — together.
We Deserve More — And Together, We Can Win It
The cost of living keeps rising — housing, child care, groceries, gas.
But the people who keep Virginia running — and the services our communities rely on, from schools to health services to sanitation — are being stretched thin.
We can change that.
When we come together in a union, we have the power to win real improvements — in our pay, our benefits, and our working conditions — so we can deliver the quality public services our communities deserve.
Through AFSCME, we build that power together.
When we organize, we win:
- Better benefits like health care, retirement security and paid leave
- The peace of mind that comes with a contract, and the strength in numbers it takes to enforce it
- Stronger paychecks that keep up with rising costs
- A real voice on the job — on schedules, staffing and working conditions
- Respect and protection on the job
