Firelands Workers United

Firelands Workers United/Trabajadores Unidos and Firelands Workers Action/Acción de Trabajadores build multiracial working class power in Washington state's rural timber counties to campaign for a fair economy. We organize with working families in Spanish and English to unite workers across sectors, race, and generation to challenge the outsized power of Wall Street corporations that have decimated our economies, people, and land and to move resources to our communities. Firelands' base of hundreds of working families throughout the region includes mill workers, cannery workers, retail workers, house cleaners, nurses, school workers, mothers and the unemployed. Their campaigns advance policies that benefit workers, including union jobs caring for people and the land, healthy and affordable housing, healthcare, childcare, and a fair tax system.
