AMEA and ASEA: We Are Stronger Together!
Unions build power by standing together and making our voices heard. AMEA members will soon be voting on a proposal to unify with our union siblings at Alaska State Employees Association (ASEA/AFSCME Local 52). This proposed merger will give AMEA members more resources and professional support while maintaining our own identity.
