Battle Within SEIU Comes to a Head with Executive Board Vote on Future of One of its Largest Locals

We look at the latest on a major battle within one of the country’s largest labor unions, the Service Employees International Union. SEIU’s executive board is meeting today to decide whether to dismantle one of its largest locals, California’s 150,000-member United Healthcare Workers West, by merging all or part of it into a new California affiliate. Critics of the proposal say SEIU president Andy Stern is trying to push ahead with the move despite overwhelming opposition from local members. [includes rush transcript]

  • @Mahoivlich: SEIU is loosing touch with a union's democratic principles. I have seen this "top down" rule that Rosselli talks about and it is not pretty nor does it have any fans. Stern picked the wrong local unions to try his dictatorship tactics. Respectfully, Zingrich!

  • i am sure there will be more union busting attempts as things slow down. stay strong, stay united.

  • i'm a nurse and this goes on all the time. they screw the patients and nurses to line the pockets of the executives.

  • just the start... Iam sure
