Folks,
Greetings from Rio de Janeiro, where I am getting ready to go directly to Chattanooga in a week.
With the union campaign heating up there, I won’t have time to go back to Pittsburgh. I’m going directly to Chattanooga so I can dig in for the fight.

This week, Republican Chattanooga County and City officials held a press conference outside of Volkswagen’s plant.
