  • Statements Released by Unions in Response to the January 6 Assault on the U.S
    STATEMENTS RELEASED BY UNIONS IN RESPONSE TO THE JANUARY 6 ASSAULT ON THE U.S. CAPITOL Please send to us at [email protected] AFL-CIO ACTORS' EQUITY AFA AFGE ATU Coalition of Labor Union Women (CLUW) IAM IBEW IFPTE IUPAT (PAINTERS) North America’s Building Trades Unions’ (NABTU) NewsGuild-CWA NNU PRIDE AT WORK UA (PLUMBERS) UAW Union Veterans Council AFL-CIO: Richard Trumka: Attempted coup an unconscionable assault on democracy We are witnessing one of the greatest assaults on our democracy since the Civil War. Today’s attempted coup has been years in the making as Donald Trump consistently spews venom, conspiracies, hate and lies to his supporters. They are carrying out his wishes, and far too many Republican lawmakers have enabled and even encouraged this violent threat to our republic. Emboldened by an Electoral College system that creates an avenue for insurrection instead of simply certifying the candidate with the most votes, this is an effort to violate the constitutional rights of every law-abiding American and the labor movement will not stand for it. Not today. Not ever. ACTORS' EQUITY This is what white supremacy looks like. This is an attempt to undermine the votes of millions of people of color. We must not let it happen. AFA Statement on Protecting Aviation Security Following Insurrection at Capitol Association of Flight Attendants-CWA (AFA) International President Sara Nelson, representing nearly 50,000 Flight Attendants at 17 airlines, released the following statement: "Air travel is safe because everyone follows a strict set of rules, based on the spirit that ‘we’re all in this together.’ The mob mentality behavior that took place on several flights to the D.C.

  • AFL-CIO Commission on the Future of Work and Unions
    AFL-CIO Commission on THE Future of Work and Unions REPORT TO THE AFL-CIO GENERAL BOARD SEPTEMBER 2019 To the AFL-CIO General Board: In the pages that follow, you will read the report of the AFL-CIO Commission on the Future of Work and Unions, an exciting initiative spanning nearly two years focused on bringing workers’ voices into the future of work debate and rebuilding worker bargaining power in an economy that is leaving too many people behind. We recognize this report is a first step and that our mandate of positioning the labor movement to win a future of work that is fair and just must be continuous. Our affiliated unions came together at the 2017 AFL-CIO Convention to declare: “Our values are timeless, and we know that throughout history collective bargaining has been and will be the key to power for working families. We must confront the realities that threaten our future, and we must evolve to overcome them.” We are grateful for the time and energy put forth by our sector chairs, commissioners, staff and outside contributors, all of whom lent their creativity and expertise to this final product. Our report is stronger because of these collective efforts. At our commission’s kickoff event in May 2018, I posed the following question: Will we let the drivers of inequality pervert technology to foster greater economic injustice and social unrest? Or will we demand that technology improves lives and raises standards and wages across the board? This report is our plan to achieve the latter.

  • 2017-Raise-The-Wage-Act-Sign-On
    The undersigned organizations enthusiastically support the Raise the Wage Act of 2017, as introduced by Senators Bernie Sanders (VT) and Patty Murray (WA), Representatives Robert C. “Bobby” Scott (VA) and Keith Ellison (MN). If enacted, this legislation would: Raise the federal minimum wage to $9.25 this year and increase it over the next seven years until it reaches $15 an hour in 2024; After 2024, adjust the minimum wage each year to keep pace with growth in the typical worker’s wages; Phase out the outdated subminimum wage for tipped workers, which has been frozen at a meager $2.13 since 1991; and, Sunset the much criticized ability of employers to pay workers with disabilities a subminimum wage through certificates issued by DOL. Phase out the subminimum wage for workers under the age of 20. At a time when wage stagnation and income inequality pose serious threats to our families and our economy, the Raise the Wage Act of 2017 would begin to reverse that cycle and raise pay broadly across the bottom of the workforce. According to data from the Economic Policy Institute, this Act will deliver long-overdue raises to a large segment of the workforce: more than 1 in 4 workers, 90% of whom are over the age of 20. The average age of workers who would get a raise is 36, nearly half have some years of college education, and 20 percent hold associate’s degrees or higher. In fact, those who work year- round would see a raise in the order of $3,500 a year, which is enough to make a tremendous difference in the life of a preschool teacher, bank teller, or fast-food worker who today struggles to get by on around $20,000 per year.
