POLITICS
Wanted: labor union
members interested
in running for office
Know a union member who
ought to run for public office?
Maybe it’s you? Oregon unions
want members to run, because no
one can represent the interests of
working people as effectively as
working people themselves.
That’s why a group of unions
founded the Oregon Labor Can-
didate School six years ago. The
school offers a free six-month,
one-Saturday-a-month course in
the mechanics of political cam-
paigns — for union members
who want to promote a pro-labor
agenda in public office. A dozen
alumni now hold elected office,
including seats in the Oregon
Legislature, city halls, and school
boards.
The school is now recruiting
participants who want to run in
2020 or beyond. Classes start in
October. The deadline to apply is
Sept. 14. To find out more, and
apply online — or to nominate
someone you know — visit:
