Now, we’re witnessing historically low rates of unionization nationwide... I’m ready to fight for a robust labor movement... That’s why I’m fighting to pass the PRO Act - because I believe that every worker deserves a union and it’s time for our laws to protect unions and strengthen workers’ rights to organize.
Fight for a robust labor movement and pass the PRO Act.

"I proudly stand with workers in every industry ... and believe the best way to strengthen our economy is by strengthening the labor movement. That means passing the PRO Act to protect the right to organize, raising the minimum wage, ensuring safe workplaces, and expanding access to good, clean, union jobs."
Assessments
The promised outcome includes passing the PRO Act, and the evidence shows Lee supported or was listed on the 2025 PRO Act bill, but the bill was only introduced and referred to committee, not enacted. Her official issue page continues to frame passing the PRO Act as an active goal. Because she made a serious legislative effort but the promised federal legislation has not passed, this should be scored as not delivered with an effort badge.
