Mission:

It is the mission of the Campaign for Labor Rights (CLR) to mobilize grassroots support throughout the United States to promote economic and social justice by campaigning to end labor rights violations around the world. CLR educates about, and advocates against, the underlying causes of the global sweatshop. Its campaign strategies are designed in collaboration with workers struggling to gain the right to organize, the right to earn a living wage in a clean, safe work environment, and the right to bargain collectively with their bosses. Through these campaigns CLR's goal is to empower workers.

Ongoing projects/campaigns:

Trade policy, specifically educating on Free Trade Agreements (FTA) and working to prevent further agreements from being implemented.
Support for workers in the U.S. and around the world.
Working on behalf of farmworkers to improve conditions of labor and pay.
