What better way to practice social distancing than getting out into nature for a little camping! Now you can make it even better with some Union-Made camping must haves...
Albany – More than 1,000 union members and their families enjoyed an afternoon at the ballpark to watch the New York Mets final game of the season as they played the Atlanta Braves. The day was an opportunity for union members to show their solidarity by wearing Union Strong, union-made T-shirts at a game designated as “Union Night” at the ballpark.

Albany, NY - The 2.5 million members of the New York State AFL-CIO stand with our brothers and sisters of UAW across this country including here in New York State at Local 774 in Buffalo, Local 686 in Lockport and Local 1097 in Rochester, in their fight for a fair contract.
These dedicated men and women work hard every day and are the reason GM has been able to make record-level profits.
All working men and women should take pause to celebrate Labor Day. And now, there is one class of workers, left behind for a century, that can finally join the celebration.I’m talking about farmworkers who just last month won basic labor rights, including the right to organize a union, a mandatory day of rest and the right to overtime pay.
Tens of thousands of lives will improve immediately and future generations of farmworkers will also benefit for years to come as a result of the recently signed Farmworkers Fair Labor Practices Act.
Throughout the year, we raise our voices together – public sector, private sector, and building trades – which is why the Labor Movement remains Union Strong!
It is only fitting we join together each year to celebrate that commitment to one another.
