This is the Huron Valley Area Labor Federation's (HVALF) questionnaire for candidates for municipal office outside the City of Ann Arbor in the 2022 election cycle.
Running for Ann Arbor City Council? You're in the wrong place! That questionnaire is available here:
https://forms.gle/FSPLKwY1n9K6bDgj7The HVALF is the regional level of the American Federation of Labor - Congress of Industrial Organizations (AFL-CIO), the federation of unions that represents about 11.5 of the 14.5 million union members in the United States. The HVALF represents over 40 local unions based in four counties (Washtenaw, Livingston, Jackson and Hillsdale). We bring together local union leaders to build a labor movement that aims to improve the lives of all working families. To this end, we support the fight for worker rights and living wages in the workplace, and work to change the balance of political power to achieve racial and social justice in our region and our state.
Supporting political candidates who share these objectives is a vital part of our strategy for realizing those goals. With candidates for local offices, such as these, the HVALF will make the endorsements for our region, and the Michigan AFL-CIO will back us up with access to their state-wide and national resources.
Please note that we reserve the right to share the information you provide us in this survey with our delegates, our affiliates' members, and the public.
It is recommended that you fill out your long answers in a word document, and then copy/paste them into the form to avoid technical difficulties with editing your responses.
