Marcelo Abdala
Marcelo Abdala is a prominent Uruguayan labor leader and the president of the PIT-CNT, the country's main trade union federation. He has been an influential figure in advocating for workers' rights and social justice in Uruguay.

In 2022, he highlighted the importance of the annual May Day celebrations, emphasizing that they would take on greater significance in light of governmental restrictions.
