Make an Donation To Our Election Fund
We’re using our Election Fund to print literature, cover shipping costs, and get members of our network involved in building support among our coworkers. Only donations from UAW members will be accepted.
Making a monthly donation? Recurring donations will be automatically concluded when election results are released, or when ballots must be postmarked for a runoff election, whichever is later.
Per the Monitor's rules governing fundraising, your identifying information will be disclosed to the Monitor and Shawn Fain’s campaign for tracking purposes and potentially be made public..
