Building Labor’s Revolutionary Voice in Venezuela: The UNT’s second national Congress
Rival factions clashed at the second national Congress of Venezuela’s National Workers Union (UNT), held in Caracas, May 25-27. Over 2000 voting delegates and 1000 supporting union members attended the Congress, which ended in disarray when a group of dissident delegates split off from the main group and held a smaller, parallel gathering. The two groups failed to agree on a date for Federation-wide elections.
