IUPAT President Releases Statement Calling for Action to Support Workers Impacted by COVID-19
One of the largest and most politically active building trade unions in North America has issued a clarion call for U.S. Congressional action to support workers who have been impacted by COVID-19.
The International Union of Painters and Allied Trades represents construction workers in fifty U.S. states and in every Canadian province. The union has issued a four stage response platform, titled as the “IUPAT BOLD ACTION PLATFORM FOR WORKING FAMILIES” which the union says is essential to protecting the economy and working families, and which they hope to see reflected in any upcoming stimulus package.
