    Change to Win Coalition Submits Amendments for AFL-CIO Convention - PRNewswire
    The Change to Win Coalition this week submitted its amendments and resolutions to the AFL-CIO Executive Council for consideration at the July Convention. In a cover letter to the AFL-CIO, the Coalition leaders stated: 'We seek a strong and united labor movement, a movement with the will, strength, and leadership to undertake the changes in entrenched and outmoded structures and thinking that stand in the way of a truly dynamic Federation that can be an effective voice for workers and their families.'

    The more than 20 amendments and resolutions are available at the Change to Win website (http://www.changetowin.org).
