SEIU

SEIU stands for the Service Employees International Union. It is a labor union representing workers in the service sector across the United States and Canada. SEIU is one of the largest and fastest-growing unions in North America. Its membership includes a diverse range of occupations such as healthcare workers, public employees, and property service workers.

The union was founded in 1921. Over the decades, SEIU has been involved in numerous campaigns and organizing efforts aimed at improving wages, benefits, and working conditions for its members. They advocate for policies that support working families and promote economic justice. SEIU actively engages in political action and lobbying to advance its agenda.

SEIU's organizing efforts have often focused on low-wage workers, particularly in industries with a high proportion of women and people of color. The union's structure includes various local affiliates that represent workers in specific regions or industries. These local unions negotiate collective bargaining agreements with employers and provide services to their members. SEIU is affiliated with Change to Win, a federation of labor unions.
