 March of the union elite - Pittsburgh Tribune-Review
These unions and others united around a reform agenda called Change to Win (CTW) -- based on their claim that the AFL has failed to react to the changing pace of public-policy development under a Republican White House and Congress -- and had become increasingly ineffective.
They now are working to recruit non-AFL unions like the carpenters union, which has about 500,000 members, and have commenced talks with the 2.7 million-strong National Education Association (NEA), the largest union in the United States, to see whether it can be wooed into joining the new labor federation.
These latter factors are in stark contrast to most of the older, long-established unions such as the steelworkers or the construction trades whose members are mechanics, craftsmen and technicians and whose aspirations are related to wages, Social Security, medical insurance as well as a mistaken belief in traditional union values.

I was aware that members of the International Socialist Organization (ISO) were in the group, many of them were my friends and classmates, and while I never wanted to join the ISO as I’m not a Leninist, I was happy to work with anyone against the war.
ISO members are separated from the rich and varied activist and free thinking milieu in the Bay area, which includes anarchists, left socialists and communists, community groups, different types of anti-capitalists, and all sorts of interesting people.
