Who is the Pioneer Valley AFL-CIO?
The Pioneer Valley AFL-CIO, formally known as the "Pioneer Valley Central Labor Council, AFL-CIO," is a voluntary federation of over 50 labor unions with members across the southern Pioneer Valley. Our jurisdiction includes the greater Springfield, MA area and all towns in Hampden County, Massachusetts. We are one of several hundred AFL-CIO labor councils across the country working to carry out the mission of the AFL-CIO at the local level.
