Sabrina Razvi’s commitment to her community is evident both in her work as a Library Associate at the Severn Branch of Anne Arundel County Public Libraries (AACPL) and in her organizing efforts with the new staff union for AACPL workers, Anne Arundel Library Workers United (AALWU). As a Library Associate, Sabrina wears many hats, coordinating programming that ranges from a K-pop dance program to weekly teen hangout nights, while also providing daily support to patrons as they access library services.

For nearly 10 years, AFSCME Local 1459 Vice President Clint Stevens has worked as a high voltage electrician at the University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC). It's his job to maintain all of the electrical aspects of the campus and to ensure that everything is safe and functioning smoothly.

As a lead custodian at the Community College of Baltimore County (CCBC) for nearly 30 years, AFSCME Local 3376 President Danielle Dorsey works to keep the campus buildings clean and safe for the students, staff, and faculty. "I do this work because I love helping people, and this job gives me a paycheck and benefits that help me pay my bills and take care of my family," says Danielle.

Two years ago, Elisha Mack took a job at the Spring Grove Hospital Center as a Security Attendant Supervisor, seeing the opportunity as a promotion and the chance to be in a new environment after nearly two decades with the Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services (DPSCS).

The 2024 Maryland Legislative Session concluded at midnight on Monday, April 8, and our union has a lot to celebrate!

For the first time, our contract covering 20,000 state employees in Units A, B, C, D, F, and H contains language allowing us to have five Chief Stewards! These individuals are released from their state duties for the calendar year, allowing them to focus full-time on organizing and building our union, representing members and solving workplace issues, and more.

We're excited to announce the following Chief Stewards for 2024!

AFSCME Members Get It Done!

This month, I was reminded of what our union can accomplish when we show up in full force.

We’re Halfway!

This past weekend marked the halfway point for the 90-day Maryland General Assembly legislative session. AFSCME members were a green machine, packing the halls on Monday evening lobby nights, testifying at budget hearings, and showing support for our priority bills.
