Working people across the United States have stepped up to help out our friends, neighbors and communities during these trying times. In our regular Service + Solidarity Spotlight series, we'll showcase one of these stories every day. Here’s today’s story.
Rosa Serai (pictured above, right) and Kyle Johnson (center)—both members of the National Air Traffic Controllers Association (NATCA)—are making waves in Nevada’s Labor 2022 campaign. As two of the release staff members working directly with the Nevada State AFL-CIO, they have spent the last few weeks revving up the labor movement’s election efforts in the key battleground state. They’re busy recruiting campaign volunteers, writing scripts for phone banks, rallying their fellow union members during worksite visits and so much more.
They also attended the state federation’s recent constitutional convention where they met Nevada’s outstanding pro-labor candidates, including Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto (left). “Kyle and I are proud to say that we were an integral part of the team that set up, organized and assisted throughout the convention,” Serai said. “We were introduced to the convention body as the campaign team and earliest release staff to help Nevada win!”
