A picture of four shirts that read, “It’s Better in a Union.”

Hi John,

We know you love unions. And we know you love union merch. We’ve heard your calls for union gear that’s comfortable, high-quality and union-made.

Just in time for Labor Day, we’ve launched our new AFL-CIO union store. Be the first to shop for T-shirts, sweatshirts, hats, stickers and more to help grow our labor movement: betterinaunion.org/store

This morning, Gallup released a new Labor Day poll showing that 70% of Americans approve of labor unions—nearly our highest level of support since the 1960s.

That’s because the American people know: It’s better in a union. Workers in labor unions make 18% more in wages than our nonunion counterparts. We are more likely to have health care benefits. We work in safer workplaces. And we have more job security—even and especially in moments of economic crisis.

So, get a new T-shirt to tell the world: It’s better in a union! And look out for more items to roll out in the next few weeks and months.

Get the union-made in America goods

In solidarity,

Team AFL-CIO

P.S. When you get your order, please consider snapping a picture and posting it online. Make sure to tag us at @aflcio and use #betterinaunion on Instagram, X/Twitter and Facebook. And tell everyone you know that you got it at the AFL-CIO store!
