Early in 1946, Minton won election as vice-president of the GBBA, and later in the year, he became president. In 1951, he was the AFL-CIO's delegate to the convention of the Trades and Labor Congress of Canada, and in 1956, he was elected as a vice-president of the AFL-CIO. In 1966, he represented the federation to the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions.
Minton was a supporter of the Republican Party, chairing the National Labor for Rockefeller Committee in both 1964 and 1968. He served on the President's Task Force on Economic Growth for the 70s, and also on the board of directors of Care International. He retired from his union posts in 1971.
