As U.S. senators held a hearing Thursday on American workers’ organizing rights, dozens of progressive organizations announced a new coalition to demand that lawmakers pass the PRO Act.

Motherboard reports that “the grassroots group, the Worker Power Coalition, is made up of 40 of the most powerful progressive organizations in the United States, across a broad spectrum of issues, including racial justice, electoral politics, [and] environmental activism.”
