THE VOICE OF TRANSIT WORKERS
ATU-COPE
As transit workers, our raises, benefits, and job security all depend on politics. The public budgets that fund transit systems across the country determine how big the pot is when we are negotiating our contracts, and whether our union can win big pay increases or whether we are fighting for scraps. When politicians have our back, they work to pass laws to keep us safe on the job and keep our transit systems running.
