The officers and executive board of the Milwaukee Area Labor Council come from different backgrounds, different counties, and different sectors. They are working people- working to make the community a better place while strengthening the labor movement.
The nomination process is democracy in action. Delegates chosen by their own locals, lodges and councils vote to represent their membership.
