Andrew Cameron (labor leader)

Andrew Cameron (1834–1890) was an American trade unionist who founded the National Labor Union alongside William H. Sylvis. He represented the National Labor Union as a delegate to the Basle Congress (1869) of the International Workingmen's Association (IWA).^[1]

Cameron was a supporter of free labor republicanism and opposed socialism. Despite this relatively conservative view, he was a supporter of industrial unionism.^[1]
