ANNAPOLIS, Md. – Great news out of Maryland!
After more than a year of organizing and building a powerful statewide organization, nearly 5,000 supervisors employed by the State of Maryland are now part of AFSCME Maryland Council 3.
The results of the mail-in ballot election conducted by Maryland’s Public Employee Relations Board showed that an overwhelming majority of supervisors voted for AFSCME Maryland Council 3.
"We are proud to welcome nearly 5,000 state supervisors into the AFSCME family and congratulate them on winning their union,” AFSCME President Lee Saunders said Wednesday after the results were announced. “They know a voice on the job is essential for ensuring workers have what they need to continue delivering critical public services and strengthening our communities. Now that they officially have a seat at the table, they can advocate for — and win — workplace improvements that will benefit all Marylanders.”
