Colorado WINS
@cowinsunion.bsky.social
We're the union representing +27,000 Colorado state employees.
Making Colorado run is a 24/7 job and many state workers are working through the holiday to ensure Coloradans still have access to essential services. This year, we're grateful to have dedicated civil servants on the job. Happy Thanksgiving!

State employees know being part of a union means having a voice to advocate for yourself and colleagues, workplace protections, unique benefits & a community who understands what it takes to make CO run. Join Kaori and COWINS fighting for your rights.

COWINS board member and CDOC worker Carol Jackson: We stand with the families of everyone housed in Colorado's Corrections facilities. No-one, especially the youngest, should go hungry.

This Veterans Day, COWINS honors all those who served in the US Armed Forces, especially the broad network of state workers who served their country and continue to help make Colorado run.

We see you. Thank you.

State workers are already grappling with a hiring freeze and staff shortages. As we try to fill the void left by fed cuts, we’ll be asked to do more with less.

We need to stop giving billionaires all the breaks. And we need to stop attacks on all public sector workers. #NoKings

Any harm caused by this federal shutdown is a preview of what's to come. It's the firing of of federal workers and the dismantling of federal programs that's really going to decimate our state budget and really hurt Coloradans.

ON THIS DAY: In 2009, COWINS members ratified the constitution and bylaws forming a union. Through many fights and wins, 16 years later we continue to advocate for the state employees who make Colorado run.

Our hearts go out to Evergreen High School's students, families and faculty and the first responders involved with yesterday's incident. If you are a state employee impacted by these events, remember to reach out to CSEAP.

LISTEN: COWINS Hilary Glasgow on statewide hiring freeze. State employees keep Colorado running. Budget cuts & hiring freezes means the services that Coloradans rely on may slow down.

WINS members were up bright and early this morning for move-in day at CSU Pueblo. As CFO Garrison Ortiz looks to privatize jobs across campus, we're standing up to say: Keep CSUP jobs UNION jobs!

This Colorado Day, let’s salute all the state workers who keep our state strong, safe, and beautiful.

Today, some of our best and brightest union leaders gathered in Denver to continue developing skills and strategizing for the fight ahead. And at tonight's dinner, we had the chance to recognize the great work our coworkers are already doing. See you tomorrow for day 2!

A trillion-dollar cut to healthcare won’t help working families. But it will help fund billionaire tax handouts.

That's why WINS members are in DC to demand they vote ‘NO’ on Medicaid cuts.

Call Congress now to tell them #HandsOffMedicaid: 866-426-2631

We won Juneteenth as a holiday for state workers when we ratified our 1st Partnership Agreement. In 2022, we fought for and passed a bill to make Juneteenth a state holiday in CO’s constitution.

#Juneteenth wouldn’t be a state holiday without state workers. Celebrate it with us!
June 19, 2025 at 5:15 PM
We had a great day with @seiu105.bsky.social celebrating Juneteenth!

It's a Colorado WINS tradition to celebrate Juneteenth — a state holiday our members fought for, and won!

Today we announced we are joining the lawsuit against @govofco.bsky.social. His actions undermine public trust in state agencies and implicate state workers in unlawful collusion with the cruelty and terror being unleashed by ICE in our communities. End #ICERaids #SolidaritySummer
