Your Rights. Non-Negotiable

Management says the union can't help you? They're wrong. We fight and win — using every VA directive, every legal avenue, every day.

Know Every Benefit.

From TSP to FEGLI to OPM, most employees don't know what they're entitled to. We change that — from day one of your federal career.

Become a Millionaire

$1 million in TSP at retirement isn't a dream — it's a roadmap. We've seen it done. We'll show you exactly how to get there.

What

We Fight

For

Pay Equity for Everyone

Nurses leaving the VA in droves because pay is too low? Not on our watch. We fight for fair pay across every title and classification.

No Member Left Behind

New hire or retiree, Title 5 or Title 38, healthy or injured — we stand beside you throughout your entire federal career, not just when problems arise.

Democracy Doesn't Stop Here

Executive orders won't silence us. Lawsuits won't stop us. We're fighting for your collective bargaining rights and we won't stop until we get them back.

Cynthia Boston Thompson

PRESIDENT, AFGE LOCAL 507

A Leader Driven by Purpose

In 2002, I joined the executive board because I saw employees struggling and believed I could help. More than 20 years later, I'm still here — still fighting, still winning. Because that's what you do when your people deserve better. You fight for their rights, you fight for their benefits, and you don't stop until the job is done."
