For Pride Month, the AFL-CIO is spotlighting various LGBTQ+ Americans who have worked and continue to work at the intersection of civil and labor rights. Today's Pride Month profile is Stacey Zimmerman of SEIU.
For more than a quarter-century, Stacey Zimmerman has fought to make her state a better and more progressive place as a student activist, community organizer and (good) union troublemaker. Whether knocking on doors, running electoral campaigns for pro-worker candidates or leading lobbying efforts for essential worker pandemic pay at the state capitol, she has been a tireless advocate for Connecticut’s working families.
