I understand this money will be used to make political contributions by AFT-Maryland COPE. AFT-Maryland COPE may engage in joint fundraising efforts with the AFL-CIO. Contributions cannot be reimbursed or otherwise paid by any other person or entity. This voluntary authorization may be revoked at any time by notifying AFT-Maryland COPE in writing of the desire to do so. Contributions or gifts to AFT-Maryland/COPE are not deductible as charitable contributions for federal income tax purposes. AFT-Maryland COPE (Committee On Political Education) is a fund composed exclusively of voluntary contributions from union members that is used to help support pro-union candidates for elected office. Members must assert that they allow this contribution to be used so that the union may assist candidates who share our values and concerns in running for elected office. COPE funding is separate from member dues. No dues dollars are contributed to political candidates. If a candidate who has won the AFL-CIO endorsement or the endorsement of an AFT-Maryland union asks for a contribution, the AFT-Maryland COPE committee (made up of leadership and members from each of the local unions) reviews the candidate’s record and makes a recommendation on a contribution. https://actionnetwork.org/fundraising/donate-to-the-aft-maryland-cope-fund
