This Veterans Day, OPEIU honors the Americans who, at tremendous personal sacrifice, were members of our country’s armed forces. More than 1.3 million veterans are union members, and we celebrate their contributions to OPEIU and the labor movement more broadly.
Despite veterans’ service to our country, their healthcare system faces severe understaffing and more than one million of them live in poverty. As our union siblings, we must stand in solidarity with veterans in their fight for what they are owed.
This is why OPEIU and many union veterans are proud members of the AFL-CIO’s Union Veterans Council, which is committed to using union power to fight for those who have fought for us.
Today and always, we are proud to acknowledge the essential role veterans play in the labor movement and beyond.
In solidarity,
OPEIU
