As part of our 2024 COPE endorsement process, we are organizing two candidate academies to provide Gulf Coast candidates and elected officials with the opportunity to learn more about our 95 local union affiliates, the work of their members, and our collective policy agenda.

• County-level candidates (Saturday, December 16th | 10am - 1pm) Plumbers Local 68 502 Link Rd Houston

• State and Federal candidates (Sunday, December 17th | 12pm - 3pm) House of Labor 2506 Sutherland St Houston

Due to space requirements and public health considerations, we reserve the right to limit attendance. Attendance is not mandatory, but will be a factor in the decision-making process of our COPE committee. Candidate endorsement screenings will take place from January 8th -14th.
