Augusta, ME- On April 25th, AFSCME Council 93 was able to achieve a long-sought victory in the state of Maine by securing funding for the so-called Heart Bill for Maine State Corrections officers. 

They collect, protect and deliver our nation’s blood supply, yet the almost 3,000 American Red Cross workers are not being paid what they deserve, lack the staff to do their jobs effectively, face cuts to their health care and, over the course of the pandemic, have often gone without pay and adequate personal protective equipment (PPE).

On April 13, 2022, AFSCME Local 1703 Members Shawn Brewer and Rich Demers were honored in a Chelmsford Police Foundation ceremony in Chelmsford, MA.  Shawn and Rich were honored for their outstanding work as police dispatchers during an incident in August 2021 when a teenager was hit by a train.  

Council 93 members can enjoy discounted tickets to Canobie Lake Park! Members have access to over 85 rides, games, shows, and attractions! The 2021 Regular Season Operating calendar has been set and Canobie Lake Park is scheduled to open on Saturday, May 29th, 2021!
