Rhode Island Council 94 AFSCME is a long-standing public employee union based in Providence and affiliated with AFSCME International. It comprises roughly 65 Local Unions across state agencies and many municipalities, and it also represents private sector workers and workers in quasi-public agencies such as the Narragansett Bay Commission and the Rhode Island Airport Corporation. The council administers a mix of master and local contracts, including a Master Contract with the State of Rhode Island covering more than 3,700 state employees and numerous contracts in cities, towns, and school districts.

The organization maintains a small full-time staff that includes field personnel, attorneys, office workers, and a political lobbyist to support organizing and representation efforts. It emphasizes political advocacy as a core function, supporting elected officials who back its positions and opposing those who do not. A recent development noted is an August 9, 2023 event in North Providence where U.S. Senator Sheldon Whitehouse joined labor officials and retirees to call for legislation aimed at protecting Social Security and Medicare solvency, highlighting its active engagement in policy issues.
