Dozens of delegates from the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAM) convened in Atlanta for a conference organized by the Georgia State Council, which serves as the union’s political advocacy group across the state. The event focused on increasing political involvement among members and preparing for the upcoming midterm elections.
During the gathering, IAM members had opportunities to meet with candidates and discuss concerns relevant to working families. The council emphasized its ongoing commitment to political action and member engagement as central themes of the conference.
The meeting is part of broader efforts by labor organizations to ensure that workers’ voices are heard in key policy debates leading up to major elections.
