‘Don’t Buy’ National Boycotts

When some labor disputes with businesses can’t be resolved, the AFL-CIO supports its affiliates by endorsing their boycotts. A boycott is an act of solidarity by voluntarily abstaining from the purchase or use of a product or service.

The following are national boycotts sanctioned by the AFL-CIO as published by Label Letter, the Union Label & Service Trades Department, AFL-CIO—September–October 2024.
