Some of AFSCME West Virginia's delegation at one of the largest
AFSCME International conventions in the history of our union.
This Chicago convention held August 2006, resulted in important
actions regarding organizing and politics, speakers such as New
York Senator Hillary Clinton and Illinois Senator Barack Obama
and a huge 'town hall' meeting to discuss the future of our
union. An organizing video shown to all 6000 in attendance
features a good clip starring four WV volunteer organizers
pictured below. To read more about this convention,
