I just found this on the AFSCME FaceBook page

because i'm calling bullshit on AFSCME.
You're not gonna whack ol' upaloo with EVIDENCE, are ya??? That's not fair at all. 
The Facebook header in that image said it was posted to AFSCME by whoever administrates the AFSCME Facebook page (which is to say "AFSCME (or their authorized representative) posted it to AFSCME's page"
and that person tagged two other people named John Rogers and Linda Smith. It's a repost of an image originally posted by Unions4Workers but it was AFSCME--not John Smith, Linda Rogers or Unions4Workers--that posted it to the AFSCME page.
I'm not calling you out specifically. I just know that not everybody knows how to read those headers to understand who posted what versus liked or reposted or whatever, especially if they're not a Facebook user. 
I don't think it nullifies their formal endorsement but it does suggest it's not as deep or complete of an endorsement as some people might interpret it to be initially. They endorsed Hillary but they seem to really like Bernie too. That suggests a weak preference or ambivalence.
This is what I get for posting before coffee. 
Anybody care to look up Hillary or Bernie donations from drug companies?

WASHINGTON — The man who has become the public face of rising drug prices says he has donated to presidential candidate Bernie Sanders — who has been bashing Big Pharma on the campaign trail — to try to get a meeting so the two can talk it out.
Sanders isn’t interested. His campaign said Thursday that he’s giving the money to a Washington health clinic instead — and the drug executive isn’t getting the meeting.
Martin Shkreli, chief executive officer of Turing Pharmaceuticals, became one of the Democrats’ favorite villains after raising the price of the only treatment of a rare parasitic infection by 4,000 percent. He’s an unlikely supporter of the Vermont senator, a self-described socialist who has proposed letting people import cheaper prescription drugs from Canada and requiring Medicare to negotiate lower drug prices.
In an interview with Stat on Thursday, however, Shkreli confirmed that he’d donated $2,700 to the Sanders campaign — the maximum individual contribution — on Sept. 28.

She has a long history with her enemies?

When asked during the Democratic presidential debate what enemies she was most proud to have made, Hillary Clinton named pharmaceutical and health insurance companies at the top of her list. But that hasn’t stopped the Democratic front-runner from accepting millions of dollars in campaign cash from both industries in the course of her political career, financial disclosure records show.
Since her first bid for Senate in 2000, Clinton has accepted nearly $1 million from drug and health companies and more than $2.7 million from the insurance field and its related sectors, according to an analysis of public records from the Center for Responsive Politics. While the analysis did not include campaign finance figures for the 2016 cycle, some of the same donors and patterns can be seen in Clinton’s lone financial disclosure filed in July.
Contributions tied to some of the same firms that gave to her 2008 presidential campaign appear in the latest disclosure, including donations connected to pharmaceutical companies Pfizer Inc., Johnson & Johnson, Bristol-Myers Squibb Co.; and insurers Aetna Inc., MetLife Inc. and Centene Corp., the latter of which is among Clinton’s largest donors this year.
In the course of her 2008 presidential bid, records show that Clinton was the third-largest recipient of campaign donations from drug and health product companies, receiving $738,359 in donations. The industry also contributed $86,875 to her 2000 Senate run, and spent $157,015 supporting her re-election in 2006.

besides nothing.
While Bernie turns way PAC $.
His campaign isn't about him. 
And no, I do NOT trust her any further than I could toss her.
...Hillery's lower drug price negations to get underway.

Is there a point to this game?
The AFL-CIO is an umbrella group of 56 unions representing more than 12.5 million workers.
At the time of bush v. Gore, I was the webmaster for one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in the world.
Before the election, they sent me a graphic that I was supposed to put up on the company's intranet. It was a bush v. Gore comparison on how the two stood on issues that affect the pharmaceutical industry.
Reading down the graphic, it became apparent what the real message was: vote for bush because if you don't, we may be laying people off.
Your job is at stake: donate to bush.

Thanks, OS!

Democratic presidential frontrunner Hillary Clinton has received more campaign cash from drug companies than any candidate in either party, even as she proudly declares the industry is one of her biggest enemies.
Clinton accepted $164,315 in the first six months of the campaign from drug companies, far more than the rest of the 2016 field, according to an analysis by Stat News.
Cash from drug companies poured in despite Clinton’s tough public stance on the industry. Last month, she unveiled a plan to combat rising drug prices by clamping down on the rules for pharmaceuticals. In last week’s Democratic debate, she listed off drug companies among the enemies she is most proud to have made in politics.
Clinton has taken a harder stance on drug companies than any other candidate besides Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), who has also skewered “Big Pharma” as he seeks the Democratic nomination.
