International Brotherhood Of Boilermakers Backs Obama; Teamsters Announcement This Afternoon
The International Brotherhood of Boilermakers endorsed Barack Obama today, giving him another critical union nod. The Teamsters Union is expected to follow this afternoon.
“Barack Obama is bringing together a diverse coalition and inspiring people to action like no other candidate has in decades,” said International Brotherhood of Boilermakers President N.B. Jones. “Barack Obama has shown the energy and vision to unite Americans, jumpstart our economy, and put working people first again. Our members are grateful for his efforts opposing unfair trade deals, and his proposal to reward employers who retain and create good jobs here at home. That’s the kind of leadership we need right now.”
Remember, the SEIU -- with 1.9M members the country's largest union -- endorsed Obama last week.
I can not believe your supporting Obama. Most boilermakers I know of are still going to vote for Clinton. Bill was the best thing that happen to the union & Hillary pretty much ran it then. I believe you chose the wrong candidate.
