Working America is the political organizing arm of the AFL–CIO.[3] Its membership is made up of non-union individuals.[1] It is the largest non-union workers' group in the United States, with a self-reported membership of 3.2 million individuals.[2] Working America advocates for progressive policy issues. The organization recruits people in working-class neighborhoods on their doorsteps in an effort to persuade them to support labor-backed candidates at election time.[4][5]
