AFL-CIO announces "Industry Coordinating Committees"

The Green Bay Press Gazette reports that the AFL-CIO will be forming four Industry Coordinating Committees to handling industry-wide bargaining in the entertainment/media, nursing, telecommunications and public sectors.

If I am not mistaken, the CTW unions rallied for more industrial organizing/bargaining models. The AFL is creating these committees in areas where CTW does not have currently have recognition, so it seems to prevent a collision of interests that many feared the split would create.
