The Solidarity Center stands with workers everywhere fighting for fair wages, safe workplaces and fundamental freedoms – because when working people have rights and a voice, democracy thrives.
As the largest U.S.-based international worker rights organization, we fight against forced labor, human trafficking, and unfair business practices that lower wages both in the U.S. and around the world. While we are allied with the AFL-CIO, we operate independently and focus solely on global efforts to uphold a simple principle: hardworking people – no matter where they live – deserve respect, fair wages and the ability to come together to negotiate better pay, benefits, and working conditions with their employers.
This isn’t charity – it’s a fight for fairness, and the stakes are real:
- Trade unionists face violence and crackdowns – even death.
- Working people, unions and veterans in war zones lose access to legal aid.
- Hard-won labor protections vanish, leaving millions without safeguards to defend their rights.
- With deep local partnerships, we’re often the only international organization standing with workers in the toughest conditions. Funding does not drive this, our mission does. And we won’t back down.
Workers’ fight is our fight. When workers win, democracy wins.
