Our Labor Organizing Department offers assistance in coordinating union campaigns and recruitment programs.

Local 76-493 supports other unions, the M. L. King County Labor Council and works with community and organizations and coalitions. 

Organizing Goals:

  • Organize musicians to achieve union recognition and work under collective bargaining agreements
  • Develop a “culture of organizing” that promotes organizing and collective action as the foundation for building a strong union
  • Expand recruitment efforts and membership retention
  • Offer training and education to members about unionism primarily through the organizing experience
  • Improving solidarity with organized labor and actively participating in the revitalization of the labor movement
  • Develop contacts with community based organizations, and working in labor/community coalitions
