For Pride Month this year, the AFL-CIO is spotlighting various LGBTQ+ workers who have worked and continue to work at the intersection of civil and labor rights in the United States. Today's profile is Chris Murray of UNITE HERE.
“Pride Month is all about celebrating who we are and standing united. In our union, we are one big family and embracing of our diversity. Because we are in a union, I know that we are all equal, deserving of respect and we have the strength of our contracts to protect us,” said UNITE HERE member Chris Murray. “To me, Pride means loving one another for who we truly are. My advice to others: Be yourself and show your Pride.”
