We are a C.W.A. Local 7000 Union Print Shop

Communications Workers of America Local 7000 Union Bug

The union bug is a sign of a just work place. Gloo Factory employees are under contract with the Communications Workers of America.  Together  we strive to make the work place comfortable and beneficial to all.

Why do labor unions exist? To create safe working conditions, immigrant rights, equal pay and living wages and benefits through collective bargaining power. Why? Because without it, many workers are denied fair labor practices.

Labor unions first began organizing in the U.S. in about the 1800s, but became more prominent towards the late 1800s during industrialization.

Today the No More Deaths coalition is releasing a report on US Border Patrol abuses of migrant detainees called Culture of Cruelty. The Gloo Factory is honored to be the printer for this epic publication, and applauds the work of the many individuals and groups working for justice in the borderlands. As an independent media project, we support the efforts of those involved in this project to shed light on the brutal truth of how people are systematically abused by our government in the name of border security.
