“Ever since I remember, my mom has been a member of a union. Unions are important because they allow for employees to communicate with each other and with people [in] higher up positions…Especially right now, unions are important in keeping employees safe in the pandemic. I have watched first hand how unions benefit employees and my mom’s union was able to give me a scholarship to help with my college!”

Emily knows firsthand that unions are both focused on helping workers now and on preparing them for the future. Her mom’s union not only looks out for and advocates for its members, but also for its members’ families – as Emily was pleased to discover when they pitched in to help with her education!
