Our Purpose

The purpose of LCLAA Sacramento Chapter is to build partnerships with community, local, and global labor organizations and peoples of the world to defeat Neoliberalism in our community and abroad. Our intention is to build and enspire our youth in the realm of labor, human rights, labor rights, and the right to organize. We believe that the power of the community, the work force, and labor in solidarity, can overcome any obstacle. We work to mobilize workers, and support the rights of immigrants. We believe in the rights of all workers around the world, and work to put an end to neoliberalism. Viva La Causa!
