Big Labor’s Quid Pro Quo Political Convention
July 8, 2024 // During the convention’s opening remarks, CT AFL-CIO Executive Secretary Tiano Ocasio revealed as much, saying, “Our endorsement means more than other endorsement,” adding, “It means more because we put boots on the ground and work hard to ensure our endorsed candidates are elected.” She vowed to hold candidates “accountable for their shortcomings and applaud them for the times they stood with us in our fight for justice.” Strangely, AFL-CIO Secretary-Treasurer Shellye Davis has yet to receive an endorsement, even though she is running for State Senate in the 2nd District.
