The American Federation of Labor (AFL) weakened during the 1920s partly due to the economic prosperity of the decade, which diminished the urgency for labor reforms and led to a decline in union membership. Additionally, the rise of anti-labor sentiments, fueled by the Red Scare and fears of communism, contributed to government crackdowns on organized labor. Internal divisions within the AFL, particularly between craft unions and industrial unions, also weakened its overall influence and cohesion.

The American Federation of Labor (AFL) weakened in 1920 due to several factors, including internal divisions and the aftermath of World War I. Many workers returned from the war with heightened expectations for better wages and conditions, but the AFL struggled to meet these demands. Additionally, the rise of industrial unions, like the CIO, and growing anti-labor sentiment during the Red Scare further diminished the AFL's influence. Economic instability and unemployment also contributed to the decline in membership and power of the organization during this period.

The American Federation of Labor (AFL) weakened during the 1920s due to several factors, including internal divisions, the rise of industrial unions that were more inclusive, and a backlash against labor movements following World War I. The post-war economic boom led to a decline in labor activism, while anti-union sentiment grew, fueled by fears of communism and radicalism. Additionally, the AFL's focus on skilled trades limited its appeal to a broader workforce, making it less relevant in an increasingly industrialized economy.
When the American Federation of Labor was formed, the leader, Samuel Gompers, believed that only skilled craftsmen could effectively force employers to negotiate with workers. Gompers decided that the AFL would admit only skilled workers, because they were harder to replace during a strike, than unskilled workers.
The Federation was founded in 1963 during the formation of the Federation of Malaysia, which included Malaya, North Borneo (Sabah), Sarawak, and Singapore.
