This morning, I reiterated that we have a responsibility to honor the generations of working people who built this movement, by building an even stronger LIUNA for the next generation.
We need to leave this union better than we found it. That’s our responsibility.

Y’all, this is the union difference.
Young working-class men in unions are more likely to own a home, get married, and have kids.
A union isn’t just about what happens at work. It’s about having the power to build the life you want.

Why do Americans trust unions more than either political party? Because unions are run by workers, for workers.
What can candidates and political parties learn from that? Listen to workers.
