Cindy Chavez

A chance to elect a labor leader to Santa Clara County BOS

Santa Clara County members are hard at work to elect labor champion Cindy Chavez to the County Board of Supervisors. Chavez is in a runoff with Teresa Alvarado, daughter of a former Santa Clara County Supervisor. With the election on July 30, an anti-Chavez smear campaign is underway and we need working families to stand up and fight back.
Winning this election is the top priority. We need more volunteers to bring Chavez to victory. Anti-labor forces are funneling thousands of dollars into an increasingly nasty smear campaign and your help is needed for us to win. Contact your union organizer for more information on how you can help Cindy become our next County Supervisor, or contact Dennis at the South Bay Labor Council: 408-606-2060.
SEIU 521 endorsed Cindy Chavez for the Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors. Vote for Cindy if you live in San Jose, district 2. We also need campaign volunteers.
