HISTORY MADE IN PORTSMOUTH!

The Portsmouth City Council has officially passed the collective bargaining ordinance!

This victory belongs to every city employee, union member, supporter, and citizen who stood together and made their voices heard. Thank you to the members of City Council who voted to give Portsmouth employees a voice at the table.

This is an important step forward, but our work is just beginning. We remain united and ready for what comes next.

When we stand together, we win together!
