There was much discussion during the Mass AFL/CIO State of the Union Conference and a unanomous concenses that how the buisness of endorsing State Representatives and Senators needs to change drastically.
Attendee's were shown a list of legislator's who hold 100 % Labor Voting Records but were informed that some are still signing on to legislation that has the potential to harm workers.
Many possible changes were discussed including points earned for stading with labor on our issues including picket lines, and points that would be taken away when a legislator does something such as signing onto bills that would be harmfull for labor.
The conference ended with the decision to form a committee to review all of the ideas suggested, research the issue further and put a proposal togeather for a new endorsement program that would be presented at a later date.
