Our Values
Affordable Education
We not only believe that everyone deserves an equal opportunity to acheive the highest level of education possible, we believe it is necessary to secure our country’s future. We work to raise awareness for programs and policies within our community that make education affordable and accessible to everyone. We consider trade unions our partners in this effort and work to ensure our community recognizes the benefits of union apprenticeships along with the opportunities available to them.

Access to Healthcare
We believe that access to healthcare is a basic human right. We work to provide a network where elected officials, candidates, labor leaders and constituents can come together and gain clarity on the challenges we face as a community and continue to find solutions to our nation’s healthcare crisis. We also recognize our local trade unions who since day one have made it a priority to protect working families and defend every individual’s right to healthcare.

Equal Pay
One of the greatest challenges women face in the fight for gender equality today is the right to equal pay for equal work. At the CCDWLI we work to elect candidates who will push for more transparency and demand equality in the workplace regardless of race, ethnicity, creed or gender. In this effort, we look to the support of our trade union partners who continue to set the moral standard and work to ensure that every employee has the power to gain equal compensation at every level.

Consumer Protection
We recognize that consumers represent the largest group of individuals in our economy and contribute significantly to our nation’s economic growth. We work to elect candidates who make it a priority protect the rights of consumers. We also work to build a network where candidates, elected officials, labor leaders and constituents are able to have open conversations about the challenges our economy faces and work together to identify solutions.

Support for Veterans
We recognize our service men and women and their families for the sacrifices they make each day to protect our freedom. We work to provide opportunities for military veterans to become involved in the political process. We also work to elect individuals who advocate for policies that protect veteran’s rights and work to find solutions to the unique challenges military veterans and their families face. We recognize and support our local trade union partners in creating opportunities for veterans to transition back into the community they serve.
