Elections 2022: Workers Vote For Progressive Ballot Measures While Congress Stagnates
Unlike the Democratic Party, the working class is not resting on its laurels, and activists and organizations must not let up. The meager, regional gains of individual states and the meek promises of the political players of the “Democratic” party cannot meaningfully repair the foundation of exploitation that props up the United States’ sociopolitical-economic edifice.
This Labor Day, Celebrate the Resurgent Union Movement’s Victories Against Pandemic Capitalism
We look to our emerging working class leaders in our locals and nationally. In the face of increasing attacks on immigrants and our unions, we say emphatically that, in the words of David C. Coates, radical union labor organizer: “An Injury to One is an Injury to All.”
ICMLPO: We Support the Struggle of the People of Sri Lanka
Those who have dragged Sri Lanka into an economic and political quagmire cannot save the country. The programmes they will present as prescriptions for "salvation" can only further impoverish the people and condemn them to hunger, and consolidate the political domination of the bourgeoisie.
APL on Roe V. Wade: Defend Our Communities From Organized Reaction
We know the right will continue to attack the rights of working people, and it falls on us to no longer settle for reformist diversions, and fight for a world in which every person has total control of their destiny.
The History and Meaning of May Day
On May Day, we shed the Reaganite mythos of the corrupt, criminal, and impotent union, and stand proudly beside our union brothers and sisters. We unearth the history of American Communists, civil rights leaders, suffragettes, radical musicians, poets, painters, and writers, who have been thrown in the dustbin of history by triumphalist capitalist historical narratives, or gentrified by the liberal establishment. We march together, across the wide spectrum of left ideologies, arm in arm, if only for the day.
American Party of Labor: We Reject Biden and Putin's War
The American Party of Labor firmly and emphatically rejects the war moves of both Biden and Putin. We are not deceived by Biden’s hypocrisy and sanctimony. Neither are we taken in by Putin’s chauvinistic claims the Ukraine is “historically Russian land.”
Gender, Gender Roles, and the Unity of the Working Class

APL Statement on the Rittenhouse Ruling: Enough is Enough
The American Party of Labor, alongside all progressive forces in the United States, condemns the outrageous acquittal of Kyle Rittenhouse for the murder of two people and the wounding of another fighting for justice in Kenosha, Wisconsin. The entire nation saw the open miscarriage of justice conducted by the Wisconsin courts, and the obvious bias of judge Bruce Schroeder, the face of calcified racist American “justice.”
APL LGBTQIA+ Commission: Vigilance Against the Vanguard of Reaction!
Until this system is destroyed, however, it falls on us to let our discontent be known to the monsters who decide our law. It falls on us to show the world our anger in the face of these bills, and even the reality that they would be considered. It falls on us to dismantle this system, because as it stands, those who control it now would see you or the queer folk in your community that you love be husks of their true selves.
From the APL Women’s Commission: COVID-19 And Pregnancy
The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the way we think about our personal health and safety. Research articles into the acute effects of COVID-19 are coming out every month, and new investigatory focus has largely shifted to the long-term effects of COVID-19 infection. However, a large gap in the literature remains: impact of COVID-19 infection on pregnant people
APL: Afghanistan and the Task of Working Class Activists in the United States

Final Declaration of the XXV International Seminar on the Problems of the Revolution in Latin America
A new period of the rise in the struggle of workers, youth and peoples is taking place in Latin America and the Caribbean. These are battles that express the dissatisfaction with the living conditions imposed by the capitalist-imperialist system; they are struggles against a series of accumulated socio-economic problems, which are growing as the policies of the governments are implemented, which do nothing but guarantee and raise the rates of profit obtained by the ruling classes, at the cost of greater levels of exploitation and oppression of the working masses and peoples.
APL Presentation at the 25th SIPRAL: The United States—An Empire in Crisis
But our duty is clear. We are in the belly of the beast and hold a great responsibility because of it. We have continued to stand and grow and we will continue to do so. Not simply for our sakes but for those of the world who are ground under the boot US imperialism.
American Party of Labor Statement on the Chauvin Ruling
When the people rise up, the ruling class has no choice but to submit. While we won justice today, we will never stop fighting until we have made a society in which George Floyd would be alive and well with his daughter, who correctly and famously said that her father “changed the world.”
On This Trans Day of Visibility, Fight for Revolution!
On this #TransDayOfVisibility, the American Party of Labor sends its firmest solidarity to our trans comrades, members, and friends, and to those struggling under prejudice, violence, poverty, and isolation because of their identity.

This new year, let’s continue our movement for justice against barbaric pandemic capitalism!
Elections Won’t Defeat Fascism, Only We Can
“Our lives as working people are too seriously imperiled to refuse to see, as the whole country did during this week’s debate, that we lose in either case—without a real popular movement.”
