How to follow the AFL-CIO convention online

Not going to L.A.? Not a problem!

When the national AFL-CIO convention kicks off in Los Angeles on Sunday, you won't have to be there to follow the proceedings. The good folks at the AFL-CIO Now blog will have you covered with a live blog of all the action, happening each day from 8:30 AM through 6 PM Pacific time (11:30 to 9 PM Eastern) through the end of the convention on September 11.

You also can follow the convention conversations on Twitter using the hashtag #aflcio13 and seeing updates on the AFL-CIO Facebook page.
