LOTS TO SAY by Tula Connell, Jan 3, 2007 at www.afl-cio.org National AFL-CIO website in Washington, D.C. 20006.

The e-mailbag got pretty full over the holidays—just now catching up on your news and comments.

In the next few weeks, the AFL-CIO Now blog will introduce its first-ever comment section—allowing you to comment directly to blog posts and discuss issues among each other.

In the meantime, if you have news or comments, keep sending them to: blognews@aflcio.org.

Jack Gose of South Pasadena, Fla., tells us about a new website for Postal Workers (APWU) retirees and other retired union members.

APWU of Florida State Retiree Chapter, AFL-CIO, has created a new website named “Retiree Paradise” at http://www.retireeparadise.blogspot.com/ for AFL-CIO active and retiree members and their families to access and share retirement information.

As Brother Gose says:
When a union member retires from the workplace, everything that affects the retiree also affects the family members either directly or indirectly as well!

Congratulations to Brother Gose and all APWU retirees on this great move into the NetRoots!
