We now have a national strike fund at the DU

This discussion thread is pinned.

We have a new tax-deductible charity. I had posted about the charity. I got a few questions and requests to make a DU link.

Here is the original LBN post: https://www.democraticunderground.com/10143653460

NEW YORK – The American labor movement will soon have something it’s never had before: a centralized strike fund.

Union Now, the new nonprofit and brainchild of Association of Flight Attendants-CWA International President Sara Nelson, began officially fundraising at a kickoff rally on Sunday, April 12th, in Manhattan. National leaders of the Democratic left were there in support; both Bernie Sanders and Zohran Mamdani made rousing speeches, which suggests that the supporters Union Now hopes to enlist will go beyond those who are already union activists.

As a 501(c)3, Union Now does not donate to individual candidates

You might check the site to see if there are any mistakes.
