The AFL-CIO has compiled great resources and materials to help you learn more about the PRO Act and let others know to contact their elected officials.
Outdated labor laws have hampered our fundamental right to join together and negotiate for better wages, benefits and working conditions. The Protecting the Right to Organize Act will empower America’s workers and make our economy work for working people.
Lawmakers gave us their word they would make the PRO Act a top priority. It’s time for them to keep that promise.
The PRO Act is the cornerstone of the AFL-CIO’s Workers First Agenda and a priority for the Los Angeles County Federation of Labor.
If it passes, it would:
- Empower workers to organize and bargain.
- Hold corporations accountable for union-busting.
- Repeal “right to work” laws, which were created during the Jim Crow era to keep White and Black workers from unionizing together.
Stronger unions mean higher wages, safer working conditions and dignity for all people who work. The PRO Act is our first step to get there.
