FEDERAL WORKERS ARE THE BACKBONE

AFGE LOCAL 1822

AMERICAS WORKFORCE

From putting the first man on the moon to ensuring your food is safe to eat, federal employees make profound differences in our lives each and every day. Unfortunately, their jobs and their livelihoods are under attack by an administration that wants to eviscerate union rights and protections, politicize the career civil service, and hire and fire employees at will. Federal employees perform critical work, from serving our veterans and securing our borders to preserving our national treasures and holding employers accountable for safe worksites. Every federal employee takes an oath to support and defend the U.S. Constitution. For federal workers, it's not just a job – it's a calling. Federal workers believe in serving the public and giving back to their communities. One-third of all federal workers are veterans. They have been there for us in good times and bad. We're asking the American people to be there for us now.

PUBLIC SERVANTS

THE PEOPLE WHO KEEP DIPLOMACY WORKING

Bring back the experts the government fired. Since July 2025, the U.S. government has fired more than 5,000 State Department and USAID career experts while it continues to outsource inherently governmental functions to loyalists and replace dedicated public servants with more expensive contractors. We urge Congress to pause the contractor hiring spree and to reinstate, compensate, and protect public servants. "These are dedicated public servants who spent their careers serving the American people, and AFGE is going to fight for them in court, in Congress, and at every level until every one of them is made whole." - AFGE National President Everett Kelley.
