To expand the political influence currently supported by Local 571 and the Illinois Federation of Teachers, the COPE/PAC Chair serves as a liaison to politicians and allows us to make contributions to politicians who share our values and support WSTU. We use the following strategies to raise money for COPE: raffles, voluntary cash contributions, voluntary payroll deductions, and square reader deductions.
