SEIU Rejoins AFL-CIO: A Historic Moment for Labor Unions

In a groundbreaking development, the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) has officially rejoined the American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations (AFL-CIO) after nearly two decades of separation. This historic move signals a renewed focus on solidarity and collective action within the U.S. labor movement. 

The Context Behind the Re-Affiliation 
SEIU parted ways with the AFL-CIO in 2005, aiming to prioritize its resources on independent organizing efforts. However, the recent decision to re-affiliate underscores the importance of unity in addressing critical challenges facing workers, such as wage stagnation, economic inequality, and workplace protections. 

Why This Move Matters 
As one of the largest and most influential unions in the U.S., SEIU’s return to the AFL-CIO bolsters the federation’s collective bargaining power, representing over 12.5 million workers across various industries. The re-affiliation brings new opportunities for coordinated advocacy, resource sharing, and addressing the evolving needs of workers in a rapidly changing economy. 

Labor Union Leadership Perspectives 
SEIU President Mary Kay Henry emphasized the importance of collaboration, stating, “By reuniting with the AFL-CIO, we are reaffirming our commitment to fight for dignity, justice, and better livelihoods for all workers.” AFL-CIO President Liz Shuler celebrated the move as a victory for the labor movement, highlighting the potential to drive transformative change through collective power. 

Future Implications for the Labor Movement 
This historic re-affiliation is expected to set the stage for a more unified approach to addressing worker rights, unionization efforts, and legislative advocacy. With SEIU’s return, the AFL-CIO’s ability to influence national labor policies and empower workers across diverse sectors is significantly strengthened.
