WASHINGTON - The American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE) congratulates 10th District National Vice President (NVP) Rogelio “Roy” Flores for his election to the AFL-CIO Executive Committee.
Flores has been the National Vice President for AFGE District 10 for the past thirteen years. Prior to holding the NVP position, Flores worked as an AFGE Field Staff National Representative for over ten years. Additionally, he served as the Executive Vice President of the Federation of National Representatives, CWA Local 2385, where his responsibilities included negotiating employment conditions and wages for workers. “This is truly an honor. I want to thank my brothers and sisters at AFGE for their continued support,” Flores stated.
