New York State AFL-CIO
Endorses Candidates for State
Legislature
At the New York State
AFL-CIO's Constitutional Convention held on
August 18, 2008 delegates voted to postpone
endorsement proceedings related to the New York
State Senate and Assembly.
At that time,
the Labor Federation's Executive Board was
granted authority to decide on endorsements
after the special session of the legislature
concluded, and when the Board could make an
informed decision based upon the entire 2008
Legislative Session.
Today, the New York
State AFL-CIO Executive Board met, and voted to
extend the 2 ½ million member organization's
endorsement to the following candidates for the
New York
State legislature:
