PWID Union
Public Workers for Indigent Defense

Our Values



Who can Join?
The PWID Union is open to all rank-and-file workers of the Virginia Indigent Defense Commission. That means if you are not a supervisor, you may join.
Per the IWW's Constitution, Legal assistants, paralegals, investigators, APD 1s and 2s, and Senior Trial Attorneys with no supervisory status are eligible.
We are organizing throughout the entire Commonwealth, so we encourage you to form a branch in your area!

Oppression Exists.
We fight it.
The IWW strongly opposes racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, and any expression of disrespect and/or intolerance of size, gender identity, sexual identity/expression, (dis)ability, age, educational level, and cultural background.

Not From Fredericksburg?
No problem. There are three IWW General Membership Branches in Virginia and one in DC covering much of Northern VA. We will plug you into the nearest Branch you are comfortable with. Just let us know where you're at.
