The North America Building Trades Unions are a conglomeration of 14 different trade unions from the United States and Canada.

NABTU described themselves as “dedicated to the stability of employment and economic security of organized construction workers in North America. Our purpose is to create more work opportunities, achieve living wages and protect benefit standards, not just for the members of our 14 national and international union affiliates, but for all construction workers.”

This week, NABTU hosted their annual Legislative Conference in Washington D.C. The multi-day event featured plenaries with speeches from government, labor, political and business leaders. NABTU members also attended workshops and visited Capitol Hill to demand Congress pass a robust infrastructure investment package, promote workforce development, and uphold strong labor standards for working families.

Among the invited speakers to the conference was Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren.

“I am proud to be here today with some of the hardest working people in this country. You are my kind of people,” said Warren in her speech.
