National Labor Relations Union

The National Labor Relations Union (NLRU) was an early American labor organization formed in the 1930s, aiming to unite various labor groups to advocate for workers' rights and better working conditions. It sought to promote collective bargaining, allowing workers to negotiate with employers as a unified group. While the NLRU aimed to support labor rights, it faced challenges such as internal divisions and competition from other unions. Ultimately, it played a role in the larger labor movement, contributing to the establishment of more structured labor laws and protections for workers in the United States.
