Union Plus
The AFL-CIO created Union Privilege in 1986 to provide union members and their families with valuable consumer benefits. Union Plus® benefits, offered by Union Privilege, serve the interests of today's working families. With Union Plus benefits, your union membership “pays,” at work and at home.
