2015 - A Year In Pictures


In 2015, AFGE took the vision Big Enough to Win and put it into action. After 24 consecutive years of growth, members broke new ground by surpassing 300,000 members for the first time. We secured major victories in the halls of Congress, at the bargaining table, and in the pages of media nationwide. Together we can accomplish anything when we commit ourselves to a common cause. See how we did it in 2015. Building Our Strength In Numbers

In 2015 we grew our union, built our bargaining and political power, and sent a strong message of unity. We welcomed our 300,000th member, organized new units, negotiated hard-won contracts and stood with other unions against incredible obstacles. All of your hard work in 2015 is setting the stage for a more promising 2016 for AFGE members and their families.

Although technology and organizing tools have been revolutionized over the last 20 years, one fact holds true: the best way to grow our union is through personal connection. That's why AFGE is investing in new tools and strategies to make it easier for our members to connect with their coworkers. Our members attended dozens of trainings, workshops and on-the-ground activities that strengthened the foundation of our federation. Our outreach to local and national media has brought your message from coast to coast and around the world.

AFGE members will continue to meet challenges head-on in 2016. Last year, AFGE members plotted a course for a stronger federation and a brighter future. One thing is for certain: The resilience, tenacity and strength of AFGE members is constant all year long.
