The Solution is in Your Hands

“It’s time to be honest with you.

You’re the problem.

Every year about this time we warn you, the motoring public, that highway work is beginning across the country. State Police, State Departments of Transportation, workers, Unions, OSHA, and more; we produce public service announcements and billboards and newspaper ads begging you to be alert, slow down, and drop the phone in work zones.”

Protecting Workers' Rights

In the days, weeks, and months ahead, news will come at us fast and furious. As your union, we remain laser-focused on what matters most: the issues that directly impact your day-to-day lives—your paycheck, your health, and your safety at work.

To cut through the noise, I will be addressing you directly in plain language on the topics that genuinely affect our bottom line. Yesterday, I released the first of these statements regarding President Trump’s decision to terminate Jennifer Abruzzo, General Counsel of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), and Board Member Gwynne Wilcox.

Podcasts with Brent Booker

Just days ago, Donald Trump signed an Executive Order that basically cut off all federal funding for most of our safety net programs, instantly creating funding issues all over America. This is chaos by design, and it will be followed by massive cuts to many of the most vital domestic programs in American history. We discuss this and more with guests Randi Weingarten of The American Federation of Teachers and Brent Booker, President of LIUNA.

Brent Booker, General President of the Laborers’ International Union of North America (LIUNA), joined the America’s Work Force Union Podcast to discuss the union’s growth, innovative programs and future outlook.
