The entire labor movement is coming together today to call our senators and let our voices be heard.

The PRO Act is a critical piece of legislation, safeguarding civil rights, workers' rights, and economic rights for working people. It passed the House in March, but we still need the Senate to pass this landmark piece of legislation, which will directly improve the livelihoods of millions of working people without the protection of a union contract. Can you take a few minutes to call your senators today?

MetLife Legal Plans is here to help connect you to experienced attorneys – all with no copays, deductibles, or claim forms with a network attorney – and for a limited time, at a reduced monthly fee of only $19.95 a month.

The history of the music industry in the U.S. is dotted with unions, strikes, and collective action — from the 1942-44 musicians strike to the 2019 No Music for ICE campaign — but the focus has tended to land on the artists themselves. Union-minded musicians have a few options: The Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA) was founded in 2012 (the result of a merger of the two organizations founded in the 1930s), and the American Federation of Musicians (AFM) dates back to 1896; they collectively represent about 75,000 musicians, the majority of whom work with orchestras, in opera, or in musical theater.
