BAC Executive Council: Resolution on Iraq

With talk of war looming, the BAC Executive Council unanimously passed a resolution acknowledging the need to support our troops in a war, without losing sight of the many critical issues facing working families and the blatant attacks on unions. The resolution says in part:

“Therefore, be it resolved, that members of the BAC Executive Council, pledge their support of future U.S. and allied armed forces in Iraq if military action is deemed necessary; and

Be it further resolved, that we call on the Bush Administration to cease the groundless assault on union members and labor leaders, and instead, promote greater unity on the home front with policies that respect and recognize the stake of all Americans in a growing, stronger economy.”
