The VT AFl-CIO endorses Labor for Palestine’s “U.S. Labor Must Stand With Palestine!” solidarity statement!

Executive Board Member, Helen Scott (of the AFT) states, “The VT AFL-CIO opposes racism and discrimination of all kinds, stands in solidarity with workers across the world, and recognizes the power of organized labor to effect positive social change. We have heard the call of Palestinian workers’ organizations for global solidarity in their struggle for freedom and justice and we applaud the growing number of US unions that have responded with resolutions, statements, and workplace actions, such as the Block the Boat campaign. We, therefore, endorse US Labor Must Stand with Palestine.”
