Overview

Given the results of the last presidential election and the previous Trump administration's record, the upcoming administration will likely significantly impact union rights enforcement and immigration policy practices. Join us for a workshop and strategic conversation with policy experts, union leaders, and immigrant worker advocates to unpack the goals of Project 2025 and explore ways to counter them. Through interactive activities and discussions, we will reflect on the panels and strategize how to strengthen the labor and immigrant rights community, supporting one another to defend the rights of all workers.
