Colorado AFL-CIO

Colorado AFL-CIO Profile and History

The Colorado AFL-CIO is dedicated to organizing working people in the State of Colorado; to securing and protecting dignity and equality, rights and benefits, and to raising the standard of living and quality of life for all working people and their families. Our mission, therefore, is to promote organized labor, to educate our members and the public about the labor movement, and to encourage the active involvement of all of our members in their communities. To this end, we are committed to providing the guidance and assistance necessary so that the voices of working people are heard and understood in all political and public forums. As a federation, we will coordinate with local unions and their members, our activities, energies and resources to exercise our rightful influence at our places of work; to pursue our interests in our communities and to empower all working people across the State of Colorado.
