Connie has been a strong supporter of labor unions, collective bargaining, and workers’ rights. As Supervisor, she worked to strengthen protections for workers, raise wages, and combat wage theft. In Congress, she’ll work to empower American workers by protecting their right to organize and unionize.

Connie will cosponsor the Richard L. Trumka Protecting the Right to Organize (PRO) Act to provide more workers with the freedom to organize and negotiate with their employers. And she will work to strengthen the Occupational Safety and Health Act and its related agencies to ensure that workers are protected on the job - and that we have the oversight to make sure safe workplace rules are enforced.
