Greater Buffalo Industrial Union Council (CIO)

The Greater Buffalo Industrial Union Council (GBIUC), formerly Erie County Industrial Union Council, was organized in 1937 and served as the central body of CIO unions in Buffalo and vicinity until GBIUC merged with the Buffalo Federation of Labor in 1958.

The Council participated in organizing work, engaged in political activities (municipal, state, and national), and involved itself in educational work (classes and the formation of educational committees in local unions.).
