The Labor Wire

Aug. 15, 2018

A week after the defeat of “right to work” in Missouri, working people are riding a wave of momentum across the country. Last night, working people in Minnesota, Wisconsin and Connecticut secured primary victories for several of our proud union brothers and sisters.

Message of the Day—Filling the Halls of Power

Yesterday marked a watershed moment for working people in three states, as union members secured nominations for federal and statewide office. Here are a few of our brothers and sisters who came out on top:

• Tim Walz (AFT-NEA)—Nominee for Governor, Minnesota

• Julie Blaha (AFT-NEA)—Nominee for State Auditor, Minnesota

• Randy Bryce (Ironworkers)—Nominee for the 1st Congressional District, Wisconsin

• Jahana Hayes (NEA)—Nominee for the 5th Congressional District, Connecticut
