Labor union rift opening; GOP sees opportunity - By Donald Lambro, THE WASHINGTON TIMES
A looming civil war among labor leaders about whether to reorganize the AFL-CIO and turn more resources over to local unions threatens to weaken one of the Democrats' strongest and richest political allies, Republican political strategists said this week.
The battle being waged by dissident unions, which want to move political power and money to labor locals at the grass-roots level, is being closely watched by Republican officials who see an opportunity to strike new alliances with labor leaders opposed to AFL-CIO President John Sweeney.------------------------------------------- posted 12:45 PM :: reference link ::
