In Chicago, General President Brent Booker brought leaders from across LIUNA together for a Laborers Rising strategy session. Guided by Director of Organizing Steve Schwartz, the conversation centered on how we deepen our connection to members and strengthen solidarity across every local.
Our Business Manager Jon P. Preciado and our team joined PSW Regional Manager, Ernesto J Ordonez and national organizing and communications leaders to share approaches, listen to real experiences, and help shape the path forward for our movement.
We heard directly from members about what solidarity looks like on the job and in their communities. The conversations, the stories, and the support we shared in that room show exactly what it means to strengthen this movement together.
In a special moment, we stood with the LIUNA Women’s Caucus to present LIUNA’s $100,000 pledge to Connections for Abused Women and their Children (CAWC), an effort we proudly contributed to at NABTU’s Tradeswomen Build Nations, a powerful reminder of what solidarity can achieve.
