Advocating for Federal Workers Since 1968

Our Mission

Empowering Federal Employees Through Collective Action

As a local union of the American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE), we are dedicated to ensuring that every federal worker at the CDC has a voice in their workplace.

Through collective bargaining, grievance representation, and advocacy, we work to secure fair wages, safe working conditions, and respect for all our members.

Our commitment extends beyond the workplace—we build community, provide resources, and support our members through every stage of their federal careers.
