This Election, We’re Showing Up.

The 2026 midterm election will shape the future of our schools, our workplaces, and our communities. We know what’s at stake—and we know that our collective power can make the difference. But winning doesn’t happen from the sidelines. It happens when educators and classified professionals talk to coworkers, knock on doors, make calls, and turn out to vote.

Sign up to join a CFT phone bank, walk precincts, talk with voters, or take part in other election activities happening across California. Whether you have a few hours or can make a bigger commitment, your participation matters. 

Step up and help us build the power we need to win in November.
