Chicago & Midwest

Regional Joint Board

 STAND PROUD, STAND STRONG! 

The Chicago and Midwest Joint Board, Workers United is dedicated to workers rights, organizing and education. We are an aggressive and growing union driven by the strength of an informed and empowered membership. We represent thousands of workers in Ohio, Kentucky, Michigan, Indiana, Wisconsin, Illinois, Missouri, Minnesota, Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, Colorado and Utah.

Our members work in industrial laundries, distribution centers, light manufacturing, racetracks, clothing manufacturing and hotels. Our members make the footballs for the Super Bowl, the uniforms for the Air Force Academy cadets, the seats for Corvettes, and they help racegoers at Chruchill Downs.

 OUR MISSION 

The Chicago and Midwest Joint Board of Workers United is one of the most active labor unions in the country. We strive in being the leaders in union activism and education. Our mission is to make sure our members get the best representation at work, while they learn about their rights in an unfair economic system. We want our members and all workers in America to  get a living wage and to see the end of draconian right-to-work laws
