Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), speaking at the quadrennial convention of the AFL-CIO, urged labor leaders and delegates to prepare for an uphill battle as they seek to strengthen the labor movement, beat back "powerful interests" and enact financial reform.
"Our agenda is America's agenda," said Warren. "The American people know that the system is rigged against them and they want us to level playing field."
The convention officially opened on September 8 in Los Angeles and is scheduled to close September 11.
