The AFT-Maryland prepared a questionnaire for candidates running for office as a means to familiarize the candidates with issues that our members care about most. It also allows us the chance to see where the candidates stand on these issues.
AFT-Maryland locals participate fully in the endorsement process of the Metropolitan Baltimore AFL-CIO Council. Because we are a large contingency within the Baltimore AFL-CIO, the unions of the AFT-Maryland have a heavy influence on who Labor chooses as its candidates for endorsement.
If you have any questions about how AFT-Maryland fits in to the AFL-CIO endorsement process, please contact Todd Reynolds, AFT-Maryland Political Coordinator, at 443-320-4719 or treynolds@aftmd.org.
