This epilogue surveys developments since September 2009, when Richard Trumka replaced John Sweeney as AFL-CIO president. It covers events up to the end of 2015, when the research period of this project ended. Overall, Trumka continued many of Sweeney’s reforms, placing a big emphasis on organizing, political mobilization, and connecting with women and minority workers. He also continued to diversify the AFL-CIO’s leadership; in 2009, for example, for the first time, two of the Federation’s top three officials were women. Trumka also had to confront many negative developments, especially in the wake of the Tea Party elections of 2010. Many Republican governors now sought to take on unions, especially in the public sector, with the high-profile battle in Wisconsin (2011) being the best example. Despite being more “under fire” than ever, the AFL-CIO continued to fight back, defending important progressive legislation and remaining as the only mass membership, national organization fighting for working Americans.
