Hispanic Heritage Month Profiles: Oscar Solla

Throughout Hispanic Heritage Month, the AFL-CIO will be profiling leaders and activists to spotlight the diverse contributions Hispanics and Latinos have made to the labor movement. Today's profile features Oscar Solla of the Professional Aviation Safety Specialists (PASS).Oscar Solla joined PASS immediately after being hired by the Federal Aviation Administration. He now serves as a union rep at his facility in Puerto Rico. "With the critical safety work that we perform, it is necessary to stay focused on the work, not our working conditions,” Solla says. "We run the safest airspace in the world, and PASS plays a big role in that by representing us in a professional, effective way.”Kenneth Quinnell Mon, 10/06/2025 - 09:44
