You already know that unions give working people a voice.
But the COVID-19 pandemic is showing more and more people the union difference: better access to personal protective equipment, hazard pay and safer working conditions. AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka (UMWA) connected the dots between the pandemic and surging public support for unions on CNBC.
The majority of Americans support unions. We have a pro-labor Senate, House and White House. This is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to transform the labor landscape into one that works for all of us.
We’ve laid out five priorities lawmakers should focus on in our Workers First Agenda. Add your name to show you’re ready for legislation that puts workers first.
In Solidarity,
Team AFL-CIO
