Bruce Raynor, President, UNITE
Douglas McCarron, President, United Brotherhood of Carpenters
waldheim: Solidarity Saturday That list sound familiar? It should. It's the same group that has been featured recently preparing for a power struggle within the AFL. It's pretty interesting to see them not only fighting within the AFL to force a progressive shift to more organizing, but also supporting each other in their local fights.------------------------------------------- posted 9:43 AM :: reference link ::
