自2000年以来,美国的全国工会正式支持无证移民。然而,根据2012年至2016年期间对工会和移民权利领导人进行的69次采访,本文提供了一个基于当地的解释,说明工会与无证移民的团结在全国各地的变化。我们探讨了旧金山弗朗西斯科和休斯顿的工会如何参与奥巴马时代的移民计划,这些计划为一些无证移民提供了历史性的救济。我们发现,旧金山的进步的政治背景和密集的移民组织的基础设施,使城市的历史上强大的工会建立深刻的制度团结与移民社区在童年抵达的递延行动(DACA [2012])和美国人的父母递延行动(DAPA [2014])程序。与此同时,休斯顿的政治分裂背景和移民组织的基础设施稀疏得多,使得该市历史上较弱的工会有必要通过更不同的渠道与移民社区建立团结。
National labor unions in the United States have formally supported undocumented immigrants since 2000. However, drawing on 69 interviews conducted between 2012 and 2016 with union and immigrant rights leaders, this article offers a locally grounded account of how union solidarity with undocumented immigrants has varied notably across the country. We explore how unions in San Francisco and Houston have engaged with Obama-era immigration initiatives that provided historic relief to some undocumented immigrants. We find that San Francisco’s progressive political context and dense infrastructure of immigrant organizations have enabled the city’s historically powerful unions to build deep institutional solidarity with immigrant communities during the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA [2012]) and Deferred Action for Parents of Americans (DAPA [2014]) programs. Meanwhile, Houston’s politically divided context and much sparser infrastructure of immigrant organizations made it necessary for the city’s historically weaker unions to build solidarity with immigrant communities through more disparate channels.
