Labor Education Project on AFL-CIO International Operations
(LEPAIO)
The following letter was sent to Labor Notes to contribute to the position of AFL-CIO with its “Solidarity Center” in the Latin American countries.
The AFL-CIO continued to support CTV efforts to confront the Venezuelan government. In recently released documents garnered from a FOIA request, it is clear that the SC continued its challenge to the Chávez government and actively sought to undermine labor efforts pursued by the socialists — as recently as 2014.

Building global worker solidarity
Unions are the only organizations that will further the economic-democratic gains of the workers.
However, workers’ struggles have been stifled by the lieutenants of the bosses pretending to represent the working class.
To impact and lift the blockade in front of the labor, we need our democratic unions where the officials answer only to the rank and file.
Democracy and Internationalism
Unions need to be democratic to represent the workers. Enough sell-outs! Rank and file to the leadership.
