The Executive Council of the 12.5 million member AFL-CIO has voted overwhelmingly to endorse Representative Keith Ellison to lead the Democratic National Committee. Over the last few weeks, several candidates have sought the endorsement of the AFL-CIO and met personally with members of the Political Committee, which ultimately recommended the endorsement.
Representative Ellison meets the high standard working people expect from leaders of our political parties, said AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka. He is a proven leader who will focus on year-round grassroots organizing to deliver for working families across America. Under his leadership, the Democratic Party will embody the values that our members stand for every day.
"The AFL-CIO knows the challenges facing Americas working families and how to speak to working Americans of all colors, genders, and backgrounds, said Ellison. I am proud to be on their side and I am even prouder that the AFL-CIO is on mine. Workers will be central to the Democratic Party.
Many unions of the AFL-CIO have leaders as well as rank-and-file members on the DNC. However, the AFL-CIO does not have a direct affiliation with any political party and membership includes those across the political spectrum. The endorsement of DNC Chair is a reflection of the values of AFL-CIO members and the vote among their representatives.
Yey! Self-destruction!
Well that pretty much cements the AFL-CIO Socialist/Communist credentials.
Dear AFL-CIO;
Let my people go!
God
Birds of a feather
Note that the AFL-CIO overtly thinks of itself as a functional part of the Democratic Party, which is what they are and which is how Trump should treat them.
the communist/IslamoNazi alliance to destroy America
CONTINUES
and
it is right out in the open (as it has been since 2008, of course)
we used to think they’d try to hide it. no longer. they think they can finish destroying USA ...OPENLY.
Richard Trumka is a bonefide terrorist. His United Mine Workers went on strike and by standards of today, terrorized SW Virginia in their ‘88-’89 strike
EXCELLENT !!
Democratic Islamic National Committee ,DINC
When the Trump economy takes off, these people will be BEGGING for jobs and contracts. Hopefully they will be denied!
Do it. Yay Keith. Rah rah rah. How’s that Democrat plantation working for ya, American Jews?
I am so hoping they put Ellison in as DNC chair, they will be clearly identified as the party of Allah(Satan)
union doubles down on full batsh@#! muslim.
we keep winning.
Predictable. The democrat party has sold its soul to the unions and the muzlims.
And when the next 9/11-event comes, the Democrats will be asking themselves what went wrong.
1/2 of this country went insane after 9/11/2001. We saw that by November 8, 2008. Just 7 years or so.
They’re frickin nuts. All the way nuts.
“Workers”
They say that word. But I don’t think they know what it means.
I've always found their physical similarities astonishing.
