Why Won't America@Work Carry Reports Of Unions' Debate About Labor's Future? LaborTalk for January 5, 2005 By Harry Kelber
If you want to know what's happening in the labor movement, you won't find out much by reading America@Work, the AFL-CIO's monthly magazine. Your best bet for important labor news is The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times and Business Week, none of them particularly friendly to unions.
In its January 2005 issue, America@Work uses its entire back page to ask union members to "help strengthen our union movement for the future." It states that "the AFL-CIO is leading a detailed examination of what we must do to build strength for the future."
Yet nowhere in the 24-page magazine is there any information about the 10-point program to revitalize the AFL-CIO that the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) has been publicizing widely in the commercial media. Why is there not even a mention of SEIU's "Unite to Win"?------------------------------------------- posted 2:13 PM :: reference link ::
