Working people are strongest when we speak with one voice, and the union movement is strongest when it is open to all workers. Comprehensive immigration reform is a commonsense approach to upholding these core union principles and moving our country forward by halting employers who take advantage of our failed immigration policies to pursue a race to the bottom.
The national AFL-CIO Executive Council reaffirmed its commitment to passing comprehensive immigration reform, and the New Jersey State AFL-CIO is proud to join in full support of this effort to create an organized and realistic path to citizenship that raises standards for all working families and keeps our economy strong.
Now is the time to pass immigration reform that respects the dignity of workers in our country. We look forward to your support, and don’t forget to wear your union colors!
