Electoral Field Organizer

Organizational Overview

Since 1985, Pineros Y Campesinos Unidos del Noroeste (PCUN) started as a union for farm workers, fighting to gain collective bargaining rights. This is a right that this country never fully gave to farmworkers. That’s why 80 workers founded Pineros and Campesinos Unidos del Noroeste – to fight against exploitation and all of its effects. PCUN has advocated for Oregon farmworkers and working Latinx families, working tirelessly to empower these communities to understand and take action against systematic exploitation and its harmful effects.

Though we have secured incredible victories over the years, like raising the minimum wage for all workers, ensuring all children in Oregon have access to health care, and becoming the largest Latinx organization in the state, the political and cultural landscape has changed drastically, and we’re stepping up to face those changes head-on. Every day brings with it an urgent political or cultural challenge to address, and each new challenge highlights just how critical our advocacy and organizing work is.
