John,

President Biden hosted a meeting on infrastructure today. AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka (UMWA) and AFL-CIO Secretary-Treasurer Liz Shuler (IBEW) attended the kick-off meeting and were joined by labor leaders representing the union members who are ready to rebuild America.

But simply creating jobs isn’t enough. We need good union jobs with a living wage, job security and full benefits.

Sign the AFL-CIO’s Workers First Agenda if you agree.

A strong infrastructure is an equalizer that provides access and opportunity. It connects people to schools, health care, grocery stores and jobs.

And infrastructure jobs must be union jobs. Union members have kept our country running, even during this COVID-19 pandemic. The Protecting the Right to Organize (PRO) Act would provide a fair path to the more than 60 million workers who would join a union today if given the chance—and is the centerpiece of our Workers First Agenda.

It’s time to build back better with unions.

Sign our Workers First Agenda to say you support workers.

In Solidarity,

Team AFL-CIO
