Labor and Industry

The Labor and Industry Committee attempts to improve the economic status of minority groups by: (1) working to eliminate discriminatory employment practices in industry and government, wage differentials based on race, unequal opportunities for training, promotion and unfair dismissals; (2) encouraging greater participation in the trade union movement; (3) working to end discriminatory practices in labor unions; (4) securing the enactment of local, state and federal fair employment practices legislation; and (5) working for improved opportunities in vocational and apprenticeship training.
