The Second District now has a Political Website and has begun the "GET ACTIVE" Program.

They have asked that we have all members, supporters and family members of Local Unions in the states of Connecticut and Massachusetts register at the www.ibewfightback.com website.

The website is an online political activist tool which will enable Second District members to have a voice in support or opposition to legislative issues affecting workers in all branches of the I.B.E.W. This site will also be working in collaboration with the I.B.E.W. Political Department and the AFL-CIO to send out messages to all participants for national legislative issues affecting the I.B.E.W. such as the Employee Free Choice Act, Davis-Bacon, etc.
