AFL-CIO
The AFL-CIO (American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations) is a federation of 63 national and international labor unions, representing over 15 million workers in the United States. Formed in 1955 from the merger of the American Federation of Labor and the Congress of Industrial Organizations, it has played a significant role in advocating for workers' rights and improving working conditions. The organization focuses on securing benefits for American workers, such as the eight-hour workday, health care plans, workplace safety, and retirement plans. It also influences political elections by endorsing candidates who support worker-friendly policies. Additionally, the AFL-CIO provides resources and support to its affiliated unions, helping them negotiate better wages and working conditions for their members across various industries, including manufacturing, construction, healthcare, and education.
