We foster liberal and progressive relationships between public employees and the citizens they serve. We promote the importance of the public employee's role in creating a desirable and progressive community. We endeavor to portray a united image to gain political strength and public respect. We strive to give the community the best work force and leadership available. We work together as union members for a continued process of collective bargaining. We guard your constitutional rights that are granted to you as citizens under the Constitution of the United States. We support legislation and political candidates who recognize public employees, their service, and their role as public servants.

We work for better pensions and insurance benefits for our members. We work for equal job classifications, opportunities and advancement for all races, creeds and genders.
