In Congress, I will work to build an economy in which workers can thrive and get ahead, including by increasing wages, protecting workers’ rights to collectively bargain
Increase wages and protect workers' rights to collectively bargain.
Occurrences
In Congress, I will step up to level the playing field between workers and employers, not only to protect unions, but to grow them. If it doesn’t pass this year, I will be a cosponsor and a staunch supporter of the Protecting the Right to Organize (PRO) Act, to protect the right to form a union and collectively bargain, to ensure access to worksites, to protect workers during the critical period by banning captive audience meetings, and by mandating stiff financial penalties for employers who use union-busting tactics to keep their workers away from the negotiating table.
Evidence
McGarvey co-led a bill creating a universal $500 monthly tax credit for 18- to 24-year-olds, saying it is meant to help with rent, groceries, gas, tuition, and financial independence.
His current assignments include the Small Business Committee's Workforce Development subcommittee as ranking member, plus the Labor Caucus and Child Labor Prevention Task Force.
McGarvey said his 2025 work prioritized working families and listed 13 bills introduced, 2 House-passed bills, and 231 cosponsors.
Assessments
The available evidence shows general engagement with labor and working-family issues and a proposal for a young-adult tax credit, but it does not show that Morgan McGarvey delivered an increase in wages or enacted protections for collective bargaining rights. The cited tax-credit bill is economic support rather than a wage or bargaining-rights measure, and the other evidence reflects activity and committee roles rather than a concrete policy outcome on the stated promise. Because he remains in federal office and the record provided does not show either clear delivery or a clearly documented failed direct push on this specific promise, the best judgment is unresolved rather than delivered, partial, or never.
