We're asking you, wherever you are, to WEAR RED!  If you can we're asking you to come to DC on the 25th to join us or host an event at home. Use the hashtag #RedForFeds when showing your support on social media!

AFGE members in the federal workforce do a lot for the American people, including cure diseases, keep our communities safe, provide needed services to seniors and people with disabilities, and support our troops. Through Democratic and Republican administrations, they've had our back, and now they need us to have theirs!
