AFL-CIO Launches “Show Us the Jobs” Tour

HeadlineMar 25, 2004

The AFL-CIO has launched an eight-day “Show Us the Jobs” tour in an effort to highlight what the union calls the country’s biggest job crisis since the Great Depression. According to the AFL-CIO, the country has lost 3 million private-sector jobs since Bush took office. The tour ends next Wednesday in Washington where unemployed workers from each state will lobby legislators on Capitol Hill to enact legislation to stop employers from sending jobs overseas and to encourage job growth in this country.
