 Tri-County Labor Council
elects Twitchell
PEF Region 5 Coordinator Mary Twitchell was recently
elected president of the AFL-CIO’s Tri-County
Central Labor Council.
Twitchell represents PEF on the council, which includes
all organized labor in Chenango, Delaware and Otsego
counties.
“I am really honored to be heading this
council,” Twitchell said. “Working so closely
with the different unions in the three counties is giving
me new insights into issues such as job security, pay,
health benefits, pensions and job safety that we all
share.
“It gives me a strong appreciation for the
importance of solidarity and how powerful it can be when
workers come out and support each other during strikes,
rallies and other job actions.”
Twitchell is one of several PEF officers elected in the
past year or two to head regional and central bodies of
the AFL-CIO. — Sherry Halbrook
