Stand with us in solidarity on Labor Day in Columbia as we march against the billionaire agenda and for worker power. 

This critical gathering will unite labor, faith, civil rights, and community leaders to stand together for the dignity of working people and demand an economy that prioritizes workers — not the billionaire agenda. Lynn Teague, LWVSC Vice President, Issues & Actions, will be representing us among the speakers. 

This year’s rally comes at a pivotal moment as unions, women, immigrants, our planet, and our democracy are under attack. From union halls to the pulpits, from the docks to the streets, we must send a clear message: South Carolina’s workers demand respect, equity, and a future where prosperity is shared by all — not hoarded by a wealthy few.
