For Pride Month this year, the AFL-CIO is spotlighting various LGBTQ+ union members who have worked and continue to work at the intersection of civil and labor rights in the United States. Today's profile is Jan Chappell of the International Association of Sheet Metal, Air, Rail and Transportation Workers (SMART).
Jan Chappell has been a strong and beneficial voice at the bargaining table, educating members and the SMART leadership about barriers that the LGBTQ+ community and women face while navigating their career in SMART. She has been trailblazing the way for the next generation of SMART members.
