Monday was Labor Day, so we want to continue the celebration by spotlighting three #EmergeAlums who represent and show up for workers every single day. Unions do not happen without organizing, and neither does change. So, here are 3 Emerge alums who are proudly pro-union and putting in the work! 💪
Today, we salute the labor movement and the workers who keep organizing and keep our society running. Here at Emerge, we recognize labor efforts not just happening around us, but also within us.
