FEARING HIS PRO WORKER STANCES,
WAL-MART TELLS ITS WORKERS TO VOTE AGAINST OBAMA
FULL STORY HERE
INTERNATIONAL
IBEW ENDORSES BARACK OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT
With 10.5 million members from every walk of
life, the AFL-CIO has endorsed Sen. Barack Obama for president.
Barack Obama’s record demonstrates he is a
champion for working families and his proposals will improve
life for generations of working people and our children. Barack
Obama says, “Politics didn’t lead me to working folks; working
folks led me to politics.” He was raised by a working mother and
grandparents, worked as a community organizer in a Chicago
neighborhood devastated by the closing of steel mills, fought
for working families in the Illinois State Senate and earned a
98 percent AFL-CIO voting record as a U.S. senator. Barack Obama
is not someone who just talks the talk—he walks the walk with
working families, on picket lines, in organizing campaigns and
in bargaining for a better life.
Learn more about his record, proposals and background at
MeetObama08.
With his emphasis on what America once again
can be, and his commitment to lead for all rather than the few,
Obama has reinstilled hope for a better future and inspired
millions of new voters.
If ever working families needed change we can
believe in, it is now. Working families are struggling in an
economy that works for the few, not the many. We’re squeezed by
stagnant wages, soaring costs for health care, gas and food and
the sellout of America’s middle class.

WORKING FAMILIES VOTE 2008
is the online center for union members and all working women and
men to get involved in selecting America's next president. This
site's goal is to provide a comprehensive voter guide that
fosters civic participation among working people and encourages
them to register and vote by informing and engaging them on key
working family issues and the presidential candidates' records
and positions on the issues. The AFL-CIO has not endorsed any
candidate, and as a matter of policy, the AFL-CIO will not do so
unless and until its affiliated unions reach a sufficient
consensus on a particular candidate. Meanwhile, this website
provides and links to information about all viable declared and
exploratory presidential candidates seeking the nomination of
either major political party.
