Labor Caucus Announces Largest Ever Membership, New Task Forces

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Today, Congressional Labor Caucus Co-Chairs Representatives Debbie Dingell (MI-06), Steven Horsford (NV-04), Donald Norcross (NJ-01), and Mark Pocan (WI-02) announced that the Labor Caucus has reached its highest ever membership with 123 Members in the 119th Congress (a 19-member increase from the 118th Congress), as well as the Caucus’ launch of new, sector-focused task forces.

“This new milestone in Labor Caucus membership demonstrates that the mission of our Caucus – fighting for working people in the halls of Congress – is more relevant today than ever before. With a historic number of Labor Caucus members, we look forward to redoubling our efforts to advance a pro-worker, pro-union policy agenda,” said the Co-Chairs.

“We are also excited to announce the creation of several new task forces to continue expanding our Caucus’ work. These task forces, led by our Vice-Chairs, will lead the Caucus’ efforts focused on workers in particular economic sectors.”

These new task forces will lead the Caucus’ work to support workers in specific economic industries and will be led by the Caucus’ nine Vice-Chairs: Reps. Chris Deluzio (PA-17); Val Hoyle (OR-04); John Garamendi (CA-08); Stephen Lynch (MA-08); Glenn Ivey (MD-04); Nikki Budzinski (IL-13); Seth Magaziner (RI-02); Marcy Kaptur (OH-09). Additionally, Rep.
