HOUSTON—Houston made history yesterday when contracted city security officers became the first group of security officers in Texas to go union! 64 percent of contracted security officers with the city of Houston came together to win their union, and they won! 

We need more good union jobs. When workers stand together, we win better protections, better benefits, better pay, better working conditions and a better quality of life for everyone.

This win is just the beginning. We’ll continue to ride this rising tide and raise the standard for all security officers in Texas.
