For A Fighting Workers Movement
Points of Unity: For Class Struggle Unions!
- Workers within the established unions must organize themselves on a class-struggle basis to oppose the misleadership of boss-linked officials.
- The working class and the employer class hold no common interests.
- Unions must break from the capitalist class political parties.
- The struggle of the working class is an international struggle against a global capitalist class system of wage labor exploitation and requires international solidarity between workers of all nations to succeed in realizing its aims.
- Building working-class strike power remains an indispensable and central pillar to advancing the independent interest of the working class in defense of wages, living standards, and in forcing greater political demands against the class of employers and their state.
- Unions must break from timid subordination to the capitalist state’s legal-regulatory apparatus, that of the National Labor Relations Act and Taft-Hartley, which mandate recognition of employer rights, suppress sympathy strikes, and were historically used to purge unions of their most militant leaders.
