In the 50+ years since the merger of the AFL and the CIO the Presidents, Secretary Treasurers and Executive Vice Presidents of the AFL-CIO have separately visited the South.  On September 21st all three will be in Georgia.  This is one of only three stops on their first campaign after the end of the AFL-CIO Convention. This is historic but it is more important because it signifies the commitment the new officers have to advancing unionism in the South. It signifies that our new President Richard Trumka, Secretary Treasurer Liz Schuler and Executive Vice President Arlene Holt Baker know that job growth in the South has exceeded job growth in other regions of the country.  It signifies that they know that unions must succeed in the South for the movement to succeed in the country.

 Please join them and us at 10 AM Monday September 21st:
