Wisconsin State AFL-CIO 33rd Biennial Convention

Secretary-Treasurer Marcos Alfaro talked about his upbringing in a migrant farm worker family living in Texas and California and how joining a union as an adult in the Green Bay area changed his life.

“Being in a union means togetherness, inclusion, and making sure everyone feels like they belong,” stated Secretary-Treasurer Alfaro. “Growing up, I learned what it felt like to feel excluded, left out, left behind. Unions can bring people together and change lives. Let’s make sure we are welcoming all workers and living up to our values of solidarity.”
