Change At SEIU Coming

   By now, you may have read this:

Service Employees International Union President Andrew Stern, one of America’s most prominent labor leaders, is set to resign, according to a member of the union’s board and another SEIU official.

The President of an SEIU local based in Seattle, Diane Sosne, broke the news to her staffers at 11:35 this morning, local time.

"Last night I received confirmation that Andy Stern is resigning as President of SEIU. He has not yet made a public announcement; we will share the details as we become aware of them," reads an email from Sosne’s account obtained by POLITICO.

Sosne offered no explanation for the move, but another SEIU official speculated that Stern had finally tired of the draining job.

"Health care getting done is a good culmination," the official said.

   Presumably, Anna Burger will take over. The question that raises: what does that do over at Change To Win? There have been a lot of assumptions that CTW is on life support…I’m not arguing that that is the case. But, if Anna becomes president of SEIU, would she continue to serve as chair of CTW? And if she relinquishes the CTW role, then, who takes over?
