Federal Workers for Democracy
Federal workers are a key pillar in society for the defense of democracy, equity and rights. Around the globe when countries have faced anti-democratic threats federal workers have moved into action to protect their institutions and democratic values.

“I’ve never seen a billionaire carry the mail.
I’ve never seen a billionaire put out a forest fire.
I’ve never seen a billionaire make sure people get their Social Security checks on time.
I’ve never seen a billionaire answer a phone call from a suicidal veteran on a crisis line.
So I don’t trust a billionaire to decide what happens to our public services—and that’s why we’re fighting to get this billionaire’s hands out of them.”
— Mark Smith, a patient educator at the Veteran’s Administration in San Francisco and President of National Federation of Federal Employees Local 1
