The State Federation exists in part to coordinate a unified political effort among our member unions and state councils. 2008 will see elections in North Carolina for the U.S. president, U.S. House and Senate plus N.C. governor, lieutenant governor, council of state, state legislature, and others. The Victory Fund was established so that members could make donations to offset the considerable additional expenses involved in mounting an effective Labor 2008 strategy.
Money donated to this fund will not be used to communicate with the general public or as contributions to candidates.
