Central Labor Councils Speak for Workers and Their Unions on the Local Level The 7 Central Labor Councils in Georgia have jurisdictional areas from 7 to 20 counties each. They are represented in all of the major cities in Georgia. Local Unions affiliate with these CLC's to carry out the programs of the AFL-CIO on a local level. Labor Councils screen and make endorsements of candidates running for Mayor, City Council, School Board, Judgeships, and other county and city offices. They also screen and make recommendations for state senate and state representative endorsements to the Georgia State AFL-CIO. In conjunction with the State AFL-CIO, they organize and staff phone banks during elections to help educate the members on the issues, the positions of the candidates. They work to get endorsed candidates elected to office. Most of their work is performed by volunteers from the local unions in their area. CLC's assist local unions in their jurisdiction with organizing, community services, civil rights issues, and work with charitable organizations. They lobby local politicians on issues of concern to workers in their jurisdiction. They are an invaluable part of the AFL-CIO and it's duty to help all working people achieve a better life and a better standard of living. In Unity there is strength. The work performed by the CLCs benefits all Unions in the jurisdiction. When all eligible organizations affiliate and pay their fair share it makes us all stronger. We strongly urge Trade Councils and Local Unions to affiliate with the State AFL-CIO and the Central Labor Council in their vicinity Central Labor Councils of Georgia Savannah Regional South Georgia
