Legacy

The AFL-CIO established the George Meany Center for Labor Studies in Silver Spring, Maryland in 1974; the Center was renamed the National Labor College-George Meany Campus in 2004. The Meany Campus has housed the George Meany Memorial Archives, which holds all of the AFL-CIO records going back to the founding of the AFL in 1881, since 1987.

In 1994, Meany was pictured on a United States commemorative postage stamp, which was issued on the 100th anniversary of his birth.
