It was a packed house for Monday night’s meeting of the Metro Washington Council AFL-CIO, as delegates gathered after the summer break. Highlights of the meeting included an appearance by ATU 689 member Derrick Mallard, a bus driver who’s running for election in Bowie City Council's District 4, under a special program organized by the MD/DC AFL-CIO. “No one can tell our story better than we can ourselves,” Mallard said.
