We must stop the recall of Governor Gavin Newsom.
Anti-union organizations, individuals, and politicians have contributed millions to the recall campaign. They want nothing more than to replace Newsom with an anti-union governor to attack union jobs, voting rights, public education, pensions, and minimum wage law. If they succeed, we will lose years of progress in protecting workers and good jobs.
We urge CWA members to Vote NO on question 1 to stop the recall of Governor Gavin Newsom.
Ballots and instructions on using your ballot will be mailed to registered California voters. We encourage you to fill out and return your ballot as soon as possible. The special election will take place September 14.
Governor Newsom implemented the country’s strongest COVID-19 protections for essential workers. He expanded COVID-related paid sick leave, signed legislation to keep workers safe and shut down unsafe workplaces, and supported unions and local groups to get vaccines to essential workers. In 2019, Governor Newsom signed a bill, AB 5, to crack down on worker misclassification and restore basic rights to millions of workers.
We hope you will join us in making your voice heard in this election. The votes that we cast as union members will be crucial in stopping this recall.
Please join us for a phone bank to stop the recall! Our first two phone banks are on Monday, August 16 and Wednesday, August 18 at 5pm PT! We will hold phonebanks every Monday and Wednesday until the election: https://actionnetwork.org/forms/stop-the-recall-phonebanks
