OPEIU is Proud to Honor the Life and Legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

During his life, Dr. King bridged the gap between the labor and civil rights movements, strengthening both in the process.

OPEIU strives to bring about a future where all working people are treated with the dignity and respect they deserve. By organizing new members, bargaining fair contracts and fighting to protect the rights of working people, OPEIU is proud to honor Dr. King’s legacy and commitment to uplifting workers across the country.

Happy MLK Day from Team OPEIU.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations in cities across the country are violating working people’s fundamental rights.

Every person in the United States should be free to speak their mind, observe law enforcement operations and still go home to their families. ICE’s ongoing reckless operations do not make working people safer nor our country stronger.

OPEIU fully condemns the horrific violence inflicted on working people by ICE and calls upon Congress to take action against the agency’s willful disregard for human life.
