UNIONS MORE IMPORTANT THAN EVER FOR WORKERS, TRUMKA SAYS(from St. Louis Labor Tribune)

Organized labor is more relevant today than ever, especially for younger workers, affirmed AFL-CIO President Rich Trumka recently. Trumka spoke at the 32nd Annual McBride Lecture sponsored by the Higgins Labor Studies Program, part of the Center for Social Concerns.
He said unions were important in developing the middle class at the beginning of the 20th century. “America reaped the rewards of working harder and working smarter,” Trumka said. “It happened because one-third of the workforce was unionized.”
He pointed out that more Americans than ever before are in poverty as a result of the current economic situation and said the need for jobs has never been greater. “Today more than 25 million Americans are looking for work and can’t find it. More than 9.2 percent of the workforce is unemployed,” he said.
Despite recent attacks on union, he pledged that organized labor led by the AFL-CIO is not giving up. “The American labor union is reorganizing and revitalizing itself.” He said, “We’re helping workers across the economy.”
