Change to Win
Five of the most por-growth unions within the AFL-CIO have "rebelled" and decided to represent their own core principles.
The Change to Win coalition has taken note of the threat that globalization poses to American workers, as long as unions remain less global than employers.
So the coalition urges the AFL-CIO to adopt a more aggressive approach, with "global campaigns against anti-union employers as a means for building worker power. As part of this effort, we need to build global labor unity to fight for trade agreements that improve labor, worker rights, and environmental standards instead of dragging them down ..."
Glad to hear it.
