The Amalgamated Transit Union (ATU) is the largest labor union representing transit and allied workers in the U.S. and Canada, with over 200,000 members. Founded in 1892, the ATU fights for the interests of its hard-working members and promotes mass transit, representing a diverse range of workers including bus drivers, mechanics, maintenance workers, station agents, clerks, and municipal employees.
ATU Locals, present at the grassroots level, provide support and advocacy for members, understanding their workplace culture and issues. The union works to ensure fair wages, benefits, and job security through political engagement, emphasizing the importance of public budgets in determining the outcomes of contract negotiations and the overall functioning of transit systems.
