[[link removed]] Happy Labor DayJohn!
Today, we are not just recognizing the contributions of working people or expressing our solidarity with labor – we are putting our words into action. I ' m excited to announce that NIAC management has voluntarily recognized the NIAC Workers Union!
We are proud to be joining the ranks of other nonprofits with staff unions – such as J-Street, Center for American Progress, and Human Rights Campaign – as well as to become the first unionized Iranian-American organization.
NIAC is built on the idea that everyday people can build power by organizing together to bring real change on the issues that affect our lives. In the past, we have worked alongside labor to advocate on issues like preventing war and protecting human rights. And we have long admired the vital work of labor unions inside Iran.
Now, we are gratified to work with our staff to take the next step in putting our values into action – and we join them in standing in solidarity with workers, unionized and non-unionized, across all industries and sectors.
In solidarity ✊
Jamal Abdi
President, NIAC
