Election Day is Saturday, November 16th. Join members and staff from LFT, the AFL-CIO and locals around the state to volunteer this election day! We need to knock doors, make phone calls, send texts and do everything we can to get out the vote for Governor John Bel Edwards and other pro-public education candidates.
Here's how you can help. If you are near any of these areas, please just stop and you will be set up with a plan to canvass or phone bank. Bring friends and family with you -- the more the better!
