:: Sunday, March 09, 2003 ::
Union Presidents Form Advisory Committee Concerned that John J. Sweeney's efforts to turn around the labor movement have stalled, a handful of union presidents have persuaded the A.F.L.-C.I.O. to borrow a page from corporate America to help improve labor's fortunes.
These union leaders persuaded the A.F.L.-C.I.O. to create a corporate-like executive committee to provide guidance to Mr. Sweeney, the federation's president, and to help line up support among unions for initiatives pushed by the federation.

The executive committee will include 17 union presidents and will meet with Mr. Sweeney once a month in Washington to discuss issues, including how to increase organizing and how to respond to antilabor initiatives in Congress.------------------------------------------- posted 11:19 AM :: reference link ::
