Almost 30 new delegates to the Metropolitan Washington Council participated in an orientation last Thursday night, where they had a chance to learn in more detail about the Council’s work, programs, and the role delegates play in building labor’s power. The orientations are a regular and recurring training, and are a chance to answer questions and explain the structures and procedures that govern the organization. “We’re committed to increasing the engagement and participation of our delegates, because they are our links to the 150,000 working people affiliated with our Council,” said Executive Director Carlos Jimenez. “The level of participation and support we saw was a great reminder that our delegates are serious about working hard to advance the interests of working people.”
