Georgia State AFL-CIO:
It matters when our elected officials support unions over corporations. We’re not just seeing 272,000 new jobs in our communities, we’re seeing good-paying jobs that don't require a college degree. Together, we’re training, building, and empowering workers.

The IL AFL-CIO is proud to fight for the rights and well-being of everyone.
It is our honor + duty to uplift our LGBTQIA+ siblings. For Amanda, the power of a union during Pride month means feeling seen and valued on and off the job.
Equality is solidarity. #1u #pridemonth pic.twitter.com/Al1JqRnCrs— Illinois AFL-CIO (@ILAFLCIO) June 12, 2024

Ohio AFL-CIO:
While the @POTUS is creating hundreds of thousands of good @AFLCIO #union jobs, the other guy is rambling about sharks? Donald Trump is not serious about moving America forward and never has been. He’s a grifter who’s making millions for himself and the billionaires who fund him. https://t.co/VjceVHjsnG
