For Our Members - Local 97 General Election Endorsements:
For those who vote in Oregon Congressional District 1 (David Wu's former district), and those who have friends and relatives who vote in District 1:
There are 3 excellent Democratic candidates running to fill David Wu's former seat. But, only one of them, Brad Witt, has a union card in his wallet.
Not only is he a current State Legislator,Brad Witt is a long-time trade unionist, a former elected leader at Oregon AFL-CIO, and one who knows that when others might waver, he must carry Labor's message, because Brad Witt is one of us.
For these reasons, IFPTE Local 97 proudly endorses Brad Witt for, and urges our members to support Brad Witt's election to the Congress of the United States.
In Solidarity,
Gordon Taxer, President IFPTE Local 97
