    Samuel Gompers

    Gompers was the leader of the American Federation of Labor. The AFL was created in 1886 and became the largest union in the United States when it combined with the Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO) in the 1950s.

    Gompers' methods included creating unions of workers to address employers as a unit. He believed unions should be based on the trade of the workers instead of where workers lived. Another method he believed was important and is still used by unions today, is nonpolitical negotiation. Unions should work with any political party that will further the unions' goals. This means unions themselves should not be political in nature.
