Orange County Central Labor Council

The Orange County Labor Federation, AFL-CIO hosted its second Candidate Academy on Saturday, April 5, 2008.  The Candidate Academy is an educational workshop for those seeking union endorsements in their bids for local, state and federal offices. The Orange County Labor Federation Candidate Academy introduces and reminds candidates of working families’ priorities in 2008.  To date, sixty-two elected leaders and candidates have attended one of our 2008 Candidate Academies. 

On April 5, there were candidates running for office in Anaheim , Irvine and Fountain Valley who heard first-hand about the issues confronting Orange County ’s working families and labor’s political priorities.  A special thank you to Teamsters 952, UFCW, OCEA, SEIU-UHW, SEIU 1877, SEIU 721 and IBEW 441 for leading engaging presentations and discussions at the Academy.
