May 12, 2009

A local chapter of the labor organization SEIU today endorsed Terry McAuliffe for VA GOV, citing the strength of his jobs plan in a release issued by McAuliffe's campaign.

The chapter -- 32BJ of the SEIU, which has over 3,500 members in VA -- also stressed McAuliffe's proposals to improve VA's health care, education and the state's transportation systems.

"Terry McAuliffe will be a strong advocate for working families that make our economy run but struggle to make ends meet," said Mike Fishman, 32BJ president. "He understands that improving wage and benefit standards is a top priority for workers and key to jump-starting our economy."
