New Unity Partnership: Five Union Presidents Launch Bid to 'Revolutionize' AFL-CIO Labor Notes - by William Johnson and Chris Kutalik
Business Week describes the NUP as a “mini labor federation,” designed by and composed of the Service Employees Union (President Andy Stern), the Hotel and Restaurant Employees (John Wilhelm), UNITE (Bruce Raynor), the Laborers Union (Terence O’Sullivan), and the Carpenters Union (Doug McCarron).
Four of these unions are in the AFL-CIO. The fifth, the Carpenters, left the federation in 2001 due to allegations of building trades raiding and other jurisdictional issues.------------------------------------------- posted 6:53 AM :: reference link ::
