What are some of the benefits of membership in Texas AFT?
The advocacy program of a local is probably the most important benefit of membership in a local union. The union offers much more than professional liability insurance or consumer discounts. The union is a change agent working to transform the nature of the workplace for all educational employees. We believe that employees have a right to an organization that belongs to them free of administrator influence, one that strives to give them an equal seat at the table for decision-making about wages, hours, conditions of employment, and educational policy. Some core benefits of membership are yours whether you join in Houston, or Plano, or El Paso.
