AFL-CIO President John Sweeney has declined to explain why his name and title appear on a list of supporters of the Project for the New AmericanCentury, an organization whose prime activity is to promote the establishment of an American global empire through the use of military and economic power. On the list of “people associated” with the Project, besides Sweeney, are: Vice President Dick Cheney, a founder; Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, Florida Governor Jeb Bush, former Deputy Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz and a gallery of neo-conservatives, many from the American Enterprise Institute and the Heritage Foundation. The list is “current to Dec. 2004.”

The Project for a New American Century is a think tank, founded in 1997, whose principles are now the governing foreign and military policies of the Bush administration. In September 2000, the Project released a “grand plan” that called for sufficient combat forces to fight and win multiple major wars and be equipped for “constabulary duties” around the world, with American rather than U.N. leadership. The Project supports the doctrine of pre-emptive war and the development of a new generation of nuclear weapons.

Union members are entitled to know what, exactly, is Sweeney’s relations with the PNAC? What prompted him to collaborate with an organization that, to say the least, is hardly a friend of organized labor?
