Commentary on LoBiondo and the AFL-CIO

Our Challenge
The entrenched Union leaders of the State of New Jersey have hurled a warning at the Democratic Party: Don't you dare run a candidate against our >beloved LoBiondo. Sure! They say! We know he always votes the full loaf of bread to the millionaires and billionaires. But they say: Lobiondo always manages to throw a few crumbs to the working class and that's what we like most about LoBiondo. By definition, Democracy means the people rule. With over a million Union members in New Jersey, how many voted for Wowkanech, President of the NJ State AFL-CIO. Or should I ask how many Union workers even heard of him? I did not vote for this guy. He does not speak for me. I do not know about your county, but in Cape May County there is no voice for Labor. What we need to do is to organize a Rank & File Central Labor Council. A council that is not an adjunct to the Republican Party. We have to take the power away from these right-wingers. With a Rank&File set-up they>would have no say about it. Remember this. The workers have a right to form any Union they want. Something to think about anyway. Also. Remember how the AFL-CIO supported Solidarity in Poland.
In solidarity,
Richard Neill
