The men and women of LIUNA—the Laborers’ International Union of North America—do the hard, dangerous and sometimes dirty work of building our country.

LIUNA is the most progressive, aggressive and fastest-growing union of construction workers. LIUNA’s Build America 2010 campaign will mobilize our half-million members and allies to drive the effort to move the U.S. Senate to support jobs-creating legislation building our roads, bridges, water resources and schools.

With 17 percent of construction workers across the U.S. – 1.5 million workers – unemployed, there has never been a better time to build our nation's basics.

The union will also embark on a media effort that includes billboards warning of deficient bridges, radio ads, online ads and other outreach. The first of the billboards will appear in Colorado on I-70 and on Sixth Avenue. The campaign has kicked off in Colorado, Connecticut, Maryland, Indiana, Kentucky and Pennsylvania.
