These new protections have the potential to shift power dynamics in our campaigns involving immigrant workers. We fought hard to win them, and we want to make the most of them. We would like to invite you to a virtual meeting on June 15th from 12:30pm to 2:00pm to discuss how we can utilize these new protections to strengthen union organizing in Washington State. We will have Shannon Lederer, Director of Immigration Policy for the AFL-CIO, lead a presentation and discussion about the new policy protections for immigrant workers, how your union can work with labor agencies and legal service providers to gain new protective immigration statuses for your members. https://act.aflcio.org/events/wslc-briefing-on-new-protections-for-immigrant-workers
