Washington State Labor Council WSLC View Charity Profile
Widely considered to be the voice of labor in our state, the Washington State Labor Council, AFL-CIO represents and provides services for hundreds of local unions and trade councils throughout Washington state. The WSLC's core programs are legislative advocacy, political action, communications and media relations, and assistance with organizing campaigns.The WSLC is a voluntary organization. All union locals and councils that are affiliated with the American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations are eligible to affiliate. (Some unions outside the AFL-CIO may also affiliate via the Solidarity Charter program or the AFL-CIO/NEA Labor Solidarity Partnership.) Although not every AFL-CIO local or council is affiliated, the WSLC represents the official position of the AFL-CIO in our state. It operates by consensus and has no legal or constitutional authority to impose a position or policy on any local union or trade council.
