Local 802 AFM, Union Representing Musicians at The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Speaks Out on Cancellation The union representing live musicians at The Late Show With Stephen Colbert is speaking out against the cancellation of the show.

"We need to be very honest about what’s happening here: the President of the United States himself has said he hopes he played a role in the decision, and has warned NBC and ABC that their late night hosts are next.”

Recklessly firing the Bureau of Labor Statistics commissioner because you don’t like the new jobs numbers won’t do a thing to change the clear and simple fact: President Trump’s policy choices are costing hardworking Americans their jobs.

Job growth over the past three months has fallen to its lowest in more than a decade – and the unemployment rate for Black workers is especially ominous.

After voting to raise costs on working families, Texas Republicans are now trying to rig the map to avoid facing the Texans they betrayed.

America’s unions stand in solidarity with working people in Texas as they fight for free and fair elections.

The EPA’s β€œEndangerment Finding” is the legal basis for many environmental protections that allow working people to live in healthier communities. The Trump administration's decision to repeal it is a step backward that America's unions do not support. aflcio.org/press/releas...

Opinion | The costs of powering the AI revolution Energy use, climate change and workers rights should all be considered.

AI should make working people’s lives better, not pad CEOs’ pockets. Trump’s β€œAI action plan” fails to protect working people from the harms of AI that we’re already seeing. We’re pushing for a path forward that respects workers’ rights. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

We’re suing the Trump admin to stop their attack on the collective bargaining rights of federal workers by exploiting the β€œnational security exemption.” All workers who make the federal government run should have their union freedoms restored. aflcio.org/press/releas...
