This is a big deal.

Today, SEIU reunited with the AFL-CIO, America's largest federation of labor unions and a key voice for workers across the country. SEIU is one of the most powerful unions in America representing two million care and service workers. Their affiliation will help workers across the country to organize, earn higher wages, receive better benefits and build retirement security.

I am proud to be the most pro labor President in American history - and I'm proud to congratulate American workers on this important milestone.
