Labor Union Blog

For a snapshot of what’s on the minds of working families this election year, take a look at Working America’s “Word on the Street” blog.

That’s where the 450 canvassers in 11 states write about the people they meet and their experiences going door to door each night, talking with people about what matters most to them and how they can grow their voice through Working America.

Launched in 2003, the community affiliate of the AFL-CIO already includes more than 2 million members. The organization gives workers who don’t have a union a voice on issues from health care to jobs to education and local ballot initiatives and more.
