SEIU 503 warmly welcomes you, inviting you to explore the intricate tapestry of our union’s structure and urging you to engage actively within your workplace and the broader union family. Participation is key, and we champion your involvement both inside and beyond SEIU’s governance. In today’s landscape, a surge of working-class movements blooms across local, state, and national spheres, and we inspire our members to collaborate with other unions and movements that advocate for civil and human rights, alongside economic justice.
Moreover, we extend an invitation for our members to partake in global solidarity efforts, joining hands with workers facing struggles around the world in pursuit of shared dignity and rights. We stand united under the protective embrace of the U.S. Constitution’s Bill of Rights, highlighting our core freedoms that empower us as workers.
Among these rights, Freedom of Association allows individuals the splendid opportunity to unite, fostering collective expression and the pursuit of common interests. Freedom of Assembly invites us to rally, negotiate, and engage in peaceful protests as we champion our causes, supported by the cherished right to civil disobedience and the loud chorus of our voices demanding change. Furthermore, we advocate for the fundamental freedoms of religion, expression, speech, and the right to publish.
At SEIU, collective action is the heart of our mission, but we also acknowledge the individual autonomy of each member. Every person has the sacred right to choose which issues and movements resonate with them, empowering us all in building a brighter, more equitable future together.
SEIU 503 welcomes members to engage with both the union and the wider community. Working-class movements are on the rise, and collaboration with various unions is encouraged. Members are invited to join global solidarity efforts while being reminded of their rights under the U.S. Constitution, including the freedom of association, assembly, and expression. Individual choices in advocacy are respected alongside collective action.
In conclusion, SEIU 503 encourages members to actively participate within their union and beyond, fostering collaboration with other unions and movements for civil and human rights. Our fundamental freedoms grant us the strength to assemble, express ourselves, and assert our rights collectively while respecting individual choices. Together, we strive for a world that embraces equality and justice for all.
