AFL-CIO delegates took on other initiatives by passing the following resolutions at the AFL-CIO Convention in Los Angeles today:

• Resolution 26: Resolution to Develop a Southern Organizing Strategy [Amended];
• Resolution 38: Resolution That Reynolds American Inc. Establish a Process with FLOC That Guarantees Freedom of Association and Worker Representation for Tobacco Farm Workers in the Tobacco Supply Chain;
• Resolution 41: Collective Bargaining; and

The convention delegates also passed a constitutional amendment that would give young workers a seat on the AFL-CIO General Board.
