Workers’ Rights
EmpowerPAC fights for workers on the job and in their communities. Safety, family supporting wages, quality benefits, and respect on the job are paramount to a functional society. We stand with workers as they stand up both at their workplace and the legislature.
EmpowerPAC supports workers’ rights to form a union and bargain contracts that support middle-class ideals. EmpowerPAC supports benefits such as a worker’s right to paid sick leave, affordable adequate healthcare and family-friendly hour scheduling. We support political candidates who value these benefits and rights of workers, and we oppose candidates whose values and positions run counter to the interests of workers.
