Teamsters In Debate Over AFL-CIO's Future LaborTalk by Harry Kelber
The International Brotherhood of Teamsters has come forward with a plan to streamline the AFL-CIO and make better use of its resources for organizing. The union’s 7-point plan is the latest entry into the growing debate about the future of the AFL-CIO, which will be discussed at a meeting of the Executive Council in March in Las Vegas.
“We believe our restructuring proposals will allow us to build a more unified and more effective labor movement,” IBT President James Hoffa said in a Dec. 8 statement. “We hope these proposals will contribute to the process that will lead to a stronger labor movement as we head to the coming AFL-CIO convention.”------------------------------------------- posted 1:15 PM :: reference link ::
