The Cavalry to the Rescue - by HAROLD MEYERSON, LA Weekly
America’s new labor federation means to travel light while rebuilding unions
The Change to Win Federation, as the new group named itself during its founding convention, is a light cavalry to the AFL-CIO’s army. Its seven member unions will retain their own political, lobbying and organizing operations, but CTW itself is almost entirely about organizing. Three-quarters of its initial $16 million annual budget will be devoted to a strategic organizing center, which will help member unions run their own and their joint organizing drives, and, most crucially, will initiate organizing drives of its own.------------------------------------------- posted 4:14 PM :: reference link ::
