Oregon AFL–CIO


The Oregon American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations is the Oregon state affiliate of the AFL–CIO, the largest union federation in the United States.
The Oregon AFL–CIO engages in assisting unions in organizing, political education campaigns, legislative advocacy, building labor-community partnerships, education and training. Among the Oregon AFL–CIO's areas of interest are: creating family-wage jobs, workers' rights, economic development, community engagement, activist training and labor education.

Chapters

In 2015 11 of Oregon AFL–CIO's autonomous Central Labor Councils were dissolved and consolidated into larger chapters of the statewide affiliate. These chapters, still known as either area labor federations or central labor councils act as a regional representative for union individuals, union affiliates at the regional level. Personnel at the CLC level assist in the facilitation of strategic planning, budgeting, and assist in political campaigns.
