STERN'S AFL-CIO REORGANIZATION PLAN DRAWS SUPPORT, SOME FLAK By Mark Gruenberg, PAI, ILCA
Service Employees President Andrew Stern's plan to radically reform or blow up the AFL-CIO is drawing a combination of strong support from central labor councils and one state fed chief--along with a little flak.
Stern unveiled his plan the day before the federation's Nov. 10 Executive Council meeting. He says organized labor must change radically to keep pace with changes in work and industry.
His proposed changes include forced mergers that would reduce the number of unions and concentration by each union in a particular field of work.------------------------------------------- posted 10:30 AM :: reference link ::
