Dear NJ State AFL-CIO E-Activist,

This weekend marked another outpouring of volunteers for labor-to-labor walks, who understand this is our opportunity to elect a pro-working families, pro-Employee Free Choice Act, and healthcare-reforming President of the United States. A record breaking 1,590 volunteers visited the homes of their union brothers and sisters in an effort to educate and mobilize working families, this weekend alone. We can turn this country around. It is within our reach, but it requires effort from each and every one of us. With only 15 days left until Election Day, we can not become complacent. Please, remind your union brothers and sisters that the only polls that count are the ones after 8 o'clock p.m. on Election Day! 

Thank you to everyone who walked door-to-door, made numerous phone calls, mailed letters and flyers and participated in this weekends mobilization efforts. We hope to see you again this upcoming Saturday!  As reported by our Central Labor Councils, this weekend's volunteers included:
