Party

Labor Front

The Labor Front (LF) was formed out of a discontented national labor movement whose demands were ignored in the halls of power. The LF fights for a world where working families don't just get by, but thrive. Workers should not be content with scraps or fighting for bread alone; we deserve roses too.
