Maine Labor Climate Council

The Maine Labor Climate Council (MLCC) is a coalition of Maine labor unions representing working Mainers across the state. The MLCC seeks to develop the labor movement’s vision for how to tackle the twin crises of climate change and inequality in a way that creates good Maine union jobs, reduces carbon emissions and economic inequality, and provides a seat at the table for workers and unions in this process. By educating fellow workers, building alliances, and advocating for policy solutions, the MLCC’s work is proof that we do not have to choose between a healthy planet and good jobs that sustain our families and communities.
