Las Vegas, NV - Today. the Nevada State AFL-CIO Executive Board finalized the general election endorsements for the 2024 general election.
“We as a body feel that these candidates will best serve and protect the rights of our hard-working union members. Beginning this month, we will unite our membership, volunteers, and release staff and utilize the resources we have in order to ensure the candidates are elected to office,’ ’said Executive Secretary-Treasurer Susie Martinez. “Our member-to member campaign program brings hundreds of people from different unions who dedicate their time and resources to electing pro-labor candidates who will fight for Nevada’s working families. From now until election night, we will spend countless of hours walking, phone banking, texting, doing everything we can to get our members out to vote.”
For the first time in the Nevada State AFL-CIO’s history, we have taken a stance on the ballot measure for abortion supporting a woman’s right to choose, in addition to opposing the ballot measure requiring Voter IDs at the polls.
We thank President Biden for being the most pro-labor President, being the first sitting President in modem history to walk a picket line with our brothers and sisters from the United Auto Workers union last year. With the passing of the baton, our members are thrilled to back Vice President Kamala Harris and have shown a tremendous amount of excitement to elect her into the White House.
Please visit the Nevada State AFL-CIO website to view a list of endorsed candidates.
