the Michigan State AFL-CIO. That's our mission.

a community affiliate of the AFL-CIO, is a powerful force for working people,
combining the strength of 10 million union men and women and millions of
workers without the benefit of a workplace union who share common challenges
and goals to fight in communities, states and nationally for what really
matters--good jobs, affordable health care, world-class education, secure
retirements, real homeland security and more. Working America uses
professional research, communication, education, canvassing, lobbying and
community organizing to demand that politicians address the priorities that
matter most to working people--not just wealthy special interests.
