Unions
Our Work
We believe in fostering trust and mutual respect between employers and workers who together serve their customers and communities. The U.S. Chamber promotes legislation that leads to a stable business climate, a strong economy, and good jobs. We work with policymakers on behalf of both unionized and non-unionized businesses and fight back against the one-sided, anti-employer agenda of special interest organizations.
