Federal unions—and all unions—are under attack.

In March, the Trump administration took its most blatantly anti-worker, anti-union action yet: an executive order stripping the right to organize from hundreds of thousands of federal workers at more than 30 agencies.  

Now representatives in Congress have introduced the bipartisan Protect America’s Workforce Act, which would overturn Trump’s executive order.

We are asking every single American who cares about the fundamental freedom of all workers to join a union to call their member of Congress right now.

Virtual Labor Heroes Celebration 2021

Given the COVID pandemic and undeniable sacrifices made by Union members on the frontlines, the Hudson Valley Area Labor Federation decided to honor our Labor Heroes in a new way this year. To appropriately recognize their important work, rather than give individual awards, we decided to applaud every Union affiliate, and its members for their individual sacrifices in support of the common good. We know that every worker stepped up when the Hudson Valley needed it the most, and braved the uncertainty of this virus with grace, dedication, and care for our communities. Whether working remotely or directly, these are the people who went above and beyond to provide essential services in every industry. We can never thank them enough.

Clicking the button titled "Event Video" will take you to a YouTube video featuring a recording of our February 26th, 2021 Labor Heroes Event. Enjoy!
