Dearborn Notifies Residents of AFL-CIO Canvassers

AFL-CIO logoThe City of Dearborn wants residents to know that there will be people from the Working America AFL-CIO canvassing Dearborn neighborhoods beginning today.

The organization will be canvassing neighborhoods through Dec. 31 in hopes of signing up new members.

The canvassers will be out from the late afternoon until 9 p.m.

Dearborn officials say the canvassers will carry prominently displayed picture identification cards. The vehicle they will be using is a red Dodge Caravan with an Ohio license plate.

The City of Dearborn says it does not endorse or object to this activity, but requires all canvassers to follow city ordinances.

Resident should call the Police Department’s non-emergency number at 943-2201 if they have concerns about canvassers on their street.

    Who do they expect will want to join, I can’t think of a single reason. I don’t know many people who will even answer the door after it gets dark.

    Will the PD give us a heads up whenever Jehovah’s Witnesses are making the rounds also?

    There is way too much crime everywhere to keep allowing people to canvass and solicit neighborhoods anymore. Home invasions are especially on the rise. I have a “no solicitors” sign on my door and I choose not to answer my door when people I don’t know come knockin. But if someone thinks nobody is home how safe is it to not answer your door?
