Our Mission

To protect, empower, and elevate the working class by ensuring your voices are heard, your rights are protected, and your future is secure.

Our Vision

To build a just and equitable future where every worker is empowered, respected, and protected.

We envision a united labor force that drives workplace changes, eliminates discrimination, and uplifts employees through collective bargaining.

Our Values

  • Protection – We defend every worker’s right to dignity and respect.
    • Solidarity – We win when we stand together.
    • Justice – We fight to eliminate inequality in all forms.
    • Advocacy – We speak up for those who are unheard by management.
    • Equity – We work to level the playing field for all workers.

    "Our labor unions are not narrow, self-seeking groups. They have raised wages, shortened hours, and provided supplemental benefits. 

    Through collective bargaining and grievance procedures, they have brought justice and democracy to the shop floor." - President John F. Kennedy
