The American labor union AFL-CIO has set up a new campaign to combat outsourcing. They have launched a database which will track jobs sent overseas.
According to the Seattle Post-Intelligencer:
Richard Trumka, secretary-treasurer of the AFL-CIO, said the new Job Tracker database will help workers know which companies are exporting jobs, "and they can use that information to fight back."
Visitors to the Web site (www.workingamerica.org) are urged to write President Bush and their senators and House members to tell them to stop the export of jobs overseas. To make that task easier, the Web site will fax a pre-written form letter automatically if visitors provide their name and address.
