As was shared a few years ago, many unions that are affiliated with AFL-CIO/Union Plus offer a free associates degree program(from EGCC) to union members, their families and even domestic partners:

In the wake of the current pandemic, they have TEMPORARILY expanded that benefit to include bachelor's degree programs(from Central State University):

"In response to the current economic and health uncertainty, for a limited time, your union is offering this normally low-cost benefit completely for free! All students who begin or continue their academic program with the Summer term are eligible for a last-dollar scholarship, which allows students to complete their degree (through graduation) with no out-of-pocket cost for tuition, fees, or e-books. So, don't delay - enroll in the summer term today."

"Enroll By Summer Start Dates To Take Advantage Of This FREE Opportunity! "

It looks like the bachelor's programs currently only include education, criminal justice and business administration. Also, they're really expanded who's eligible to basically anyone related to a union member: "The Free College Benefit is open to union members in good standing, who are full dues-paying members or retiree members, and their families. Families are children (or stepchildren), grandchildren (or step-grandchildren), spouses, domestic partners, financial dependents, siblings and parents; including in-laws. Additional family members may qualify. Check with your union to confirm."
