The new wars that are upon us.
In this speech that he delivered to an AFL-CIO health and safety conference only weeks after the disasters of Sept. 11, 2001, the Secretary-Treasurer of the AFL-CIO looks at the harsh new world for labor and for worker health and safety. He links his viewpoint, too, to the policy changes resulting from George Bush's installation as President only a few months earlier: "We are witnessing one of the most anti-worker administrations in recent memory, perhaps in the entire history of this country." Then, he tells where the union battles of the future will be fought.
