Transport Workers Union

The Transport Workers Union of America (TWU), affiliated with the AFL-CIO, represents over 155,000 members across various sectors including airlines, railroads, and transit. Founded in 1934 by Michael J. Quill in the NYC subway, the TWU advocates for workers' rights, safety, and fair working conditions, striving to improve the lives of working people of all backgrounds.

The union actively confronts the challenges posed by new technology and seeks to enhance the livelihoods of its members through organizing campaigns and significant victories in contract negotiations. With a commitment to safety and solidarity, the TWU addresses critical issues such as workplace violence, operating funding for transit agencies, and the reshoring of aircraft maintenance jobs to safeguard American jobs and communities.
