WaPo also covered this but I don't want to pay to read this. There is an archive of the wapo article but FR does not allow posting archives.

Obviously no money in the deal for them.

Dear AFL-CIO: Ocasio-Cortez wants you and your members to die, after she and her friends get your money. How stupid do you have to be, AFL-CIO? Pretty damn stupid, if history is any guide.

Reagan had the support of the Teamsters as he went into the election in 1980. Jimmy Carter was just too far left; his energy policies were killing their members and therefore their dues.

I doubt your average union member is warm to the idea of socialism.

Technically, what the GND proposes is fascism. They aren’t proposing the government owns the means of production, they are proposing they regulate it (likely to death.)

She cost the city and state of New York 25,000 to 40,000 jobs and Billions of dollars in tax revenues already. It’s obvious she is easily manipulated and could care less about the unions. The woman has already pissed too many people off and her proposals do not make any sense whatsoever.

The powers that be will eliminate her district as soon as possible and give all that area to someone else that they can trust. The woman is simply a loose cannon and both her and her staff have been laundering money. It is open season on Occasionally Coherent.

She needs to go back to bartending and stealing other people’s tips instead of money laundering.

If cows could be unionized, the AFL-CIO would demand twice as much grass and salt per cow and require at least three cows to produce one fart.

For once I am agreeing with Richard Trumka, who is otherwise a thug. This GND will be a disaster for the American worker

Wow I guess there is quite a difference between a collection of people who want to be paid as much as possible for the work they do and people who want everyone to be paid the same whether they work or not.

Union thugs need to keep paying close attention to what has become of their party.

Sadly it's too late for my dad to ever abandon the Dems.

So who will the unions be donating their multi-million dollars of campaign donations to in 2020 if the not the Democratic/New Green Deal party?

At least the Democrats felt they needed to offer Blacks a promise of reparations to keep them on the plantation. But apparently unions are considered so slavishly devoted to toiling in the Democratic cotton fields that they don’t have to offer them anything to keep them in line.

To a certain extent I’m surprised by this. Wouldn’t the promise of rebuilding every building in America paid for by taxpayer funds excite at least the construction and electrical unions?

The unions used to be the core of the Democrat base, but the Democrats abandoned them during the Obama years. Other than fake unions like the SEIU, unions are only an incidental part of the Democrat coalition now.
