AFSCME Florida President Vicki Hall has strong roots in the labor movement, stretching back nearly four decades to when she first began driving school buses for Miami-Dade Public Schools in 1982. In 1992, she organized the first bus driver strike in Miami-Dade with over 300+ employees participating - a monumental feat in South Florida. As a result of her successful organizing efforts, she was asked to become a union steward for AFSCME Local 1184 and was later elected senior vice president for 10+ years. In 2015 Vicki went on to be elected president of Local 1184, and in March 2019 was elected president of Council 79. She is also a member of the Coalition of Black Trade Unionists, Coalition of Labor Union Women, and an AFSCME International Women Leadership Academy graduate.
