ENDORSEMENT/UNION: “Joe Biden landed a major union endorsement Wednesday [April 24, 2024] from North America’s Building Trades Unions, whose leaders say the president has his infrastructure bill largely to thank for it. 

In making one of their earliest ever presidential endorsements, NABTU leaders are kickstarting an eight-figure organizing program to try to deliver their 250,000 members in the battlegrounds of Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin for Biden…

Biden appeared at the union’s conference in Washington on Wednesday to officially get the nod – which union leaders also want to be seen as a stark rebuff of Trump, who eagerly solicited support from union members and leaders during his time in office, but, their leaders say, didn’t deliver.”
