Behind the Buyouts campaign

SEIU's Behind the Buyouts campaign recently released a report that raises important new concerns about the outsize impact of Kohlberg Kravis Roberts (KKR) -- a large private equity buyout firm -- on our nation's economic health, environment, product safety, and workers' basic civil rights.

About SEIU

The Service Employees International Union is 1.8 million working people and 50,000 retirees united to improve services and our communities throughout North America.

SEIU History

In 1921, members of seven small janitor unions dared to dream they could build their strength by forming a single organization, the Building Service Employees International Union. The BSEIU, a union of mostly immigrant workers chartered by the then-AFL, changed its name to Service Employees International Union (SEIU) in 1968.
