Meeting with Malcolm Kenyatta today regarding PA-SEN
Have spoken to Conor and John and will meet with Val if she's interested.
Right now I'm split between remaining neutral until the April Primary, or going with Conor unless someone else can give me a convincing answer as to how they can win in November.
Philly’s largest city worker union is backing Malcolm Kenyatta for U.S. Senate
State Rep. Malcolm Kenyatta has secured a hometown endorsement in his bid for the U.S. Senate.
District Council 33, the city’s largest municipal union, whose members include sanitation workers, correctional officers, and crossing guards, endorsed Kenyatta on Thursday at its West Philadelphia headquarters. The union represents 15 locals and has about 10,000 members.
Yvonne Sutton, political director for DC33, said Kenyatta got the nod because of his personal and political understanding of ordinary people. “He absolutely understands the plight of working families and how hard it is for them and how important it is for unions to exist,” she said.
The endorsement comes a week after another Democratic Senate candidate, U.S. Rep. Conor Lamb, received the backing of the Philadelphia Building & Construction Trades Council, a group of 30 labor unions in the city and surrounding suburbs.
