The American Federation of Labor (AFL) was a national federation of labor unions in the United States founded in Columbus, Ohio, in December 1886 by an alliance of craft unions disaffected from the Knights of Labor, a national labor association. Samuel Gompers of the Cigar Makers' International Union was elected president at its founding convention and reelected every year, except one, until his death in 1924. The AFL was the largest union grouping in the United States for the first half of the 20th century, even after the creation of the Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO) by unions which were expelled by the AFL in 1935 over its opposition to industrial unionism. The Federation was founded and dominated by craft unions throughout its first fifty years, after which many craft union affiliates turned to organizing on an industrial union basis to meet the challenge from the Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO) in the 1940s.

How are the Senate leaders chosen?
timofeeve [1]

Option 2: <u>They are elected within each party.</u>

At the beginning of each Congress, the parties' members in the Senate choose their own leaders which shall protect their rights and interests on the Senate floor. Since the 1920s, the Republicans and Democrats are the first floor leaders of the U.S.

Depending on which party is in power, one serves as majority leader and the other as minority leader. The majority leader, whose power in the Senate is equal to the power of the Speaker of the House, is responsible to schedule the daily legislative program and, along with the minority leader, it creates the unanimous consent agreements that govern the time for debate.

As the demand for goods and services decreases job growth
Fiesta28 [93]
<span>As the demand for goods and services decrease, then job growth would obviously decrease (B) as well. This is simply because as demand for goods and services lessen, then companies will have to either cut costs or find new demands. In the process of cutting costs, then jobs are also being lessened as well. If there is small demand for goods and services, then there is also a small demand for manpower as well. So job growth will decrease</span>
