What We Care About
Write Your U.S. Senators and Urge Them to Support the PRO Act
Stronger unions mean higher wages, safer working conditions and dignity for all people who work. Tell your senators that passing the PRO Act will be our first step to getting there.
Build Back Better with Unions
Outdated labor laws have hampered our fundamental right to join together and negotiate for better wages, benefits and working conditions. The Protecting the Right to Organize Act will empower America’s workers and make our economy work for working people.
Support a Workers First Agenda
Working people need laws that protect our rights to organize, keep us safe at work, and advance racial and economic justice. Tell our elected leaders to pass laws that put working people first.
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.
