Throughout Hispanic Heritage Month, the AFL-CIO will be profiling leaders and activists to spotlight the diverse contributions Hispanics and Latinos have made to the labor movement. Today's profile features Pedro Olguin of OPEIU Local 11.
“I have an opportunity to reach out and organize folks who historically have not been in the labor movement,” said Office and Professional Employees (OPEIU) Local 11 organizer Pedro Olguin. “I offer through my own heritage and my own identity the ability for people to feel reflected and feel included.”
