    Goals / Remit

    The AFL-CIO is a democratically governed federation of 55 unions, each with its own distinct membership and unique voice. Our members have come together to build and support the rights of working people. In pursuit of these goals, we also fight to vanquish social and economic injustice.

    Main EU files targeted

    Our meetings with EU officials are focused on EU and US policy with regard to the effective integration of enforceable labor standards into bilateral and multilateral free trade agreements. In this context, we also discuss efforts to ensure that trade and investment between the US and EU leads to the creation of good jobs.
