South Florida unions are gathering in Miami on Labor Day to honor elected Miami-Dade County officials they say fought valiantly against state legislation designed to weaken the rights of workers and marginalized groups across the Sunshine State.
Legislators who opposed Florida’s new union-suppressing law and other measures targeting women, people of color, teachers, migrants and the LGBTQ community deserve recognition, said Deborah Dion , political director for the South Florida AFL-CIO , which represents some 239,000 workers.
Those who backed the bills, she said, must be taken to task.
