About Us

We are AFSCME Local 3998

Local 3998 covers members at Metro State University, the MinnState System Office, and the Office of Higher Education. Our role is to provide support, information, and advocacy for our members to empower us to act together to create change and better our working conditions. 

AFSCME believes that every person working to sustain their community deserves respect. As part of the AFL-CIO, AFSCME is one of the nation’s leading advocates for working women and men. Our 1.4 million members provide the vital services that make America happen, and we believe everyone deserves a chance to fulfill the American dream.

AFSCME is the union that honors solidarity without conformity, drawing each member’s story into a force of experience and commitment that can’t be ignored. That’s how we win better lives for ourselves, our families, and our communities. For people proudly committed to public service, we never quit.
