Hall of Fame
2023 Hall of Fame August 24
Dear Labor Leader,
Each year at the Iowa Federation of Labor, AFL-CIO convention, we honor retired union
members, living or and deceased, by inducting up to three of them into the Labor Hall of
Fame. This award is presented to men and women within the labor movement whose efforts
and sacrifices have enhanced the quality of life for Iowa workers.
Each affiliate may submit nominees from which the Iowa Federation of Labor, AFL-CIO
Executive Council will choose the 2023 inductees. In order for your nominee to be considered
for this year’s Hall of Fame Award you must return the attached form to the Iowa AFL-CIO no
later than MAY 15, 2023. The IFL will announce inductees when voting ends on Memorial
Day. The recipient’s formal induction ceremony will be held at the Labor Hall of Fame dinner
on Thursday, August 24, 2023 at the Meadows in Altoona. The dinner will be held in
conjunction with the IFL Annual Convention as is has in the past.
It is an honor to nominate and to be nominated for this prestigious Labor Hall of Fame Award.
In Solidarity,
Charlie Wishman, President
Iowa Federation of Labor, AFL-CIO
