Abstract

The article focuses on the challenges faced by organized labor, particularly the AFL-CIO, under the Trump administration, highlighting the arrest of David Huerta, president of the Service Employees International Union of California (SEIU), during a protest against an ICE raid. Liz Shuler, president of the AFL-CIO, discusses the union's response to Huerta's arrest and the broader implications for workers targeted by immigration enforcement. The AFL-CIO is employing various strategies, including peaceful protests, legal actions, and community education on workers' rights, to combat the administration's policies and support affected workers. Shuler emphasizes the importance of solidarity within the labor movement and the need for ongoing mobilization in response to evolving challenges. [Extracted from the article]
