The labor movement is heating up, Jason — recent polls show that a record 70% of Americans support labor unions,1 and the better pay, healthcare, and workplace protections that they come with.
The Emergency Workplace Organizing Committee (EWOC) is organizing every day to bring those benefits to non-union workers across the country, providing support and training to help folks win the changes they want to see at work.
Any worker — in any industry, anywhere in the country — can call on EWOC to respond to emergencies faced by workers on the job.
To celebrate this Labor Day, we're uplifting EWOC's work in case you, or someone you know, could benefit from the power of a union in your workplace.
The act of organizing means coming together to address issues important to you as a worker, from sexual harassment to wages, bullying, and benefits.
We're seeing workers rise up across the country to demand better pay and better working conditions — just last week, unionized flight attendants at United Airlines voted by 99.99% to authorize a strike as they negotiate for better wages, schedule flexibility, and retirement.2

Now is the time for workers to come together in collective action to address ongoing issues and organize themselves. Present your demands in a way that's clear and concise — it is your right as a worker to take necessary action.
And don't forget: We stand with you!
In solidarity,
Team AOC
