From Daily Kos: Major union announces $150 million campaign to beat Trump
By LAURA CLAWSON for Daily Kos labor
A 2 million-member union will be making its largest-ever investment in a presidential election this year and for good reason. The Service Employees International Union announced plans to spend $150 million to defeat Donald Trump and turn the tide in what Mary Kay Henry, the union’s president, calls “a make-or-break” for workers.
”He’s systematically unwinding and attacking unions. Federal workers rights have been totally eviscerated under his watch,” Henry told the Associated Press. “We are on fire about the rules being rigged against us and needing to elect people that are going to stand with workers.”
