Thanks to our veterans, every American has the right to participate in our democracy, to join a union, and to collectively bargain. In turn, our labor movement continues to fight for those who have fought for us through the Union Veterans Council which empowers veterans to make their voices heard as our labor movement fights for good jobs and a strong, fully funded and staffed Department of Veterans Affairs.
Additionally, through our New Jersey labor program, our labor movement carries out a boots on the ground effort to elect legislators who support veterans on the issues that matter most to them. Together, we will continue to ensure that our nation’s heroes will always have the benefits they deserve. Our labor movement will always stand by the veterans who have stood by us.
