2004 Convention Resolutions

Resolution No. 37

AMERICAN ECONOMY

            WHEREAS, The economic growth of the 1990s has come to an abrupt halt, and we appear to have entered a recession of uncertain depth and duration.  The nation’s manufacturing industry is in a deep and long-lasting crisis that has already cost us millions of good jobs.

            THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, The Pennsylvania AFL-CIO believes that the tax system should be reformed so that corporations and the wealthy pay their fair share and the Pennsylvania AFL-CIO strongly opposes any further unwarranted tax cuts for the richest among us or for corporations.
