The Patriot Post® · Big Labor to Invest $300M

Big Labor, furious over the recent defeat at Chattanooga’s Volkswagen plant, is wasting no time seeking revenge. AFL-CIO political director Michael Podhorzer says that unions are looking to spend around $300 million on upcoming midterm elections. To pro-unionization workers we pose the question: Where do you think that money is coming from? Last week AFL-CIO president Richard Trumka said, “Raising wages for all workers is the issue of our time and, hopefully, will be the issue of this election.” This rhetorical talking point is intended to shadow Big Labor’s real motive, which is to confiscate $300 million to put toward electing leftist candidates.
