My Union President Went to Vegas… and All I Got Was This Strange Debate by Matt Noyes, Labor Notes
The clearest conflict expressed in Las Vegas, the one that, we are told, led to raised voices and nasty language, was an old-style jurisdictional beef between leaders of SEIU and AFSCME, who both want to pick up a large unit of child care workers in Illinois.
