What We Care About
Demand COVID-19 Relief
Working people deserve real relief from COVID-19, which has killed hundreds of thousands of Americans and left millions unemployed through no fault of their own. Tell your senators now is the time for the HEROES Act.
Pledge to Make Every Vote Count
In our democracy, every vote counts, and America's labor movement is determined to uphold our democratic ideals and ensure every vote is counted, no matter how long it takes.
Support Our Postal Service
We need a strong postal system now more than ever but the U.S. Postal Service is facing bankruptcy and the vital, quality services we've come to expect are at risk of being privatized. Tell Congress to act now to save it.
How to Form a Union
Every worker deserves the right to bargain over their salary and working conditions. Union members earn better wages and benefits than workers who aren’t in unions.
