aug 20, 1866 - National Labor Union Formed

Description:

The National Labor Union (NLU) was formed in 1866 as one of the first national labor federations in the United States, aiming to organize workers across different trades to advocate for labor reforms. The NLU pushed for an eight-hour workday, better working conditions, and workers' rights legislation, but it dissolved in 1873 due to internal conflicts and economic pressures.
