Since day one, this campaign has been built by, for, and with organized labor. Yesterday, our campaign staff officially announced that they have unionized with IBEW Local 103. I’m incredibly proud of our entire team and those who led negotiations – resulting in one of the most progressive campaign union contracts to date.

Not only did our campaign unionize – putting our values into action – but this comes on the heels of the Professional Fire Fighters of Massachusetts endorsing me last week. A critical union here in Massachusetts, now more than ever.

I am honored to have the support of over 30 unions across Massachusetts in this race. My family goes back a long time with organized labor. These relationships are deeply personal to me, and I know there are no greater champions for working people.

This is the campaign of organized labor. A campaign powered by people like you. By grassroots donations to emails like this one. Donations of a few dollars at a time. That is what this campaign is built upon. That’s how we win on September 1st. So, would you be able to contribute $3 or $25 to help us sustain our momentum and continue the fight?

Thank you for being a part of this team and for your support. Keep fighting. Be Safe. Talk soon.

– Joe
