United Auto Workers President Dennis Williams said on Thursday the union will endorse either Democrat Hillary Clinton or Bernie Sanders for U.S. president "soon," and called for unity among Democrats behind the eventual nominee.

Williams, head of the richest U.S. union, vowed that the labor group will be "all in" to support the eventual Democratic nominee. The UAW has more than 1 million current and retired members.

INDIANAPOLIS -- The United Steelworkers Local 1999, the union that represents Carrier workers who are about to lose their jobs to a plant in Monterrey, Mexico, has endorsed Senator Bernie Sanders (D-Vermont) for president.

“Bernie Sanders for decades has fought against the kinds of disastrous trade deals that are now allowing Carrier to ship over a thousand good-paying Indiana jobs to Mexico,” said Local 1999 president Chuck Jones in a joint press release with the Sanders campaign. “Bernie Sanders is the only candidate running for president who will do something to stop this kind of corporate greed if he is elected – because he’s been fighting against it for years. We will be doing everything we can to help him win the primary here in Indiana on May 3.”

Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders announced Sunday that he has received another endorsement from a union that believes he is the most pro-worker candidate.

The United Electrical, Radio and Machine Workers of America represents 35,000 workers in manufacturing and the public sector. The union prides itself on being independent and not affiliate with union conglomerates like the AFL-CIO. Union President Peter Knowlton said a Sanders presidency would be a unique opportunity that workers and unions should not pass up.

Democrats seeking the White House can usually count on cash donations from some of the same journalists who cover them—though the journalists themselves are not necessarily aware of this conflict of interest and their participation in it is rarely disclosed by their news organizations.

The donations occur through the 700,000-member Communications Workers of America—the umbrella union for guild journalists at the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, the Washington Post and other papers, as well as for many TV and communications workers.

Clinton has garnered more union endorsements than Sanders, but the CWA, which claims “700,000 members in private and public sector employment,” is thus far the biggest union to throw its support behind the senator from Vermont. The CWA’s endorsement had been anticipated after the union’s president, Larry Cohen, left his post and joined the Sanders campaign as a top adviser last July

Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders won his first endorsement from a fellow U.S. senator on Wednesday, and he and rival Hillary Clinton both announced backing from New York City labor unions as they battled to win next week's state primary.

The Transport Workers Union Local 100, representing 42,000 workers in the New York region, backed Sanders as he struggled to dent Clinton's lead in a state each has called home.

Clinton, a former two-term senator from New York, scored her own union endorsement from Local 3 International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, representing more than 27,000 area workers.

When Bill Clinton swings by the Machinists Union hall in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, on Sunday night, he'll be flanked by a bevy of national labor leaders. It will be a fitting scene for the final night before the first votes of the Democratic presidential nomination contest, a campaign in which Hillary Clinton has wrapped up the vast majority of national union endorsements. She's received the support of 24 unions, she bragged at an event last week, representing more than 10 million of the 14.6 million unionized workers in the country.

Organized labor has been a major push for her campaign as she closes out Iowa. Last week, Hillary Clinton hosted a "Hard Hats for Hillary" event that included the presidents of the Carpenters, Ironworkers, and Federation of Government Employees, among others. She released a gauzy video on her support for unions, in which she tells their members, "A lot of the work you do may not be as well understood and appreciated as it should be."

Fuck Unions. Belonged to UAW when I was fresh out of high school. Worked for GM/Fisher Body as a spot welder. Got burned by one of the guns and called for a relief man to let me go to medical and have the burns treated. Guess they were too busy giving breaks to come to my worksite. Lunch came and still no relief man had showed. Went out the door for lunch and never looked back. Fuck Unions. Fuckin' Communists.

this election is the litmus test for them. the ones i listed today have been forced to admit that they care not about securing membership jobs, instead casting their lots with known/proven globalist outsourcing puppets of the pigmen

the leadership of these unions ought to be jailed (at least)

Unions are socialist, They have to support the socialist candidate. I think it's part of their written rules isn't it?

In Australia one of our 2 political parties is called "Labor" and populated by unionists. Although with the almost total destruction of unions here, they have had to take on socialists who don't have life long union affiliations. The partly is still ruled by the non prole classes but we can over look that. Can't we.

no offense, but that is simplistic and shallow position

collusion is in play - the corps + banks + govs are colluding to enrich themselves at the expense of the working class in their countries

to bash unions for using collusion while fighting collusion is just what the pigmen have designed -- pushing the free trade snake oil on the impressionable. note that their jobs are NEVER outsourced via the free trade claims. that should wake people up if nothing else does...

public sector unions are a different story -- fk them

this thread is exposing exactly what you are talking about. many union leaders are misinforming their membership...acting as puppets of the criminal class

Its not simplistic or shallow. Its probably right on the money. If it is in the rules, then it must be done. I'm not condoning anything they say or do as a movement. I know that the people at the top of unions enrich themselves beyond the imagination of the rank and file, all the while prattling the same Socialist mantra. Doesn't matter what or where the union is, its the same play book. Its tried true and tested.

And if the socialist labor movement party wins the majority political vote you can be sure that the leader is still not going to be from the rank and file. They will be one of the ruling elite. Perhaps wearing an appropriate color but still, ruling class. Thats how politics works.

It's like the current US election. Last time it was blacks turn to Hope for Change and free phones. Now it's whiteys turn for new Hope ,.... and a big wall. When you stand back and look at it, its still the same laughing clown game, just with different prizes.
