Three-Way Drive Unions Seek Global Labor Strategy
U S unions across the AFL-CIO spectrum push a three-pronged plan to counter overseas industry. They assist foreign unions in American plants abroad, share operating costs and wage data, and pressure U S firms to raise overseas wages to curb export of jobs. The drive emphasizes international cooperation, with UAW leading and unions citing plant closures and overseas manufacturing as proof of job export.
