CD3: Wiviott Gets Backing of UAW Retired Workers Council
In his first union endorsement of the election cycle, Don Wiviott received the backing of the Central Albuquerque UAW Retired Workers Council.
Wiviott accepted the endorsement in a press release. "I am honored to have received the support of this Council, an organization that has advanced the cause of working men and women across New Mexico," Wiviott said in the press release from the campaign. "In Congress, I will be a strong advocate for organized labor and will put the interests of working families first."
Elva Santos, Vice-Chairperson of the Council said, "As a former member of the Laborers' International Union, Don Wiviott has the best understanding of the needs and concerns of organized labor."
Wiviott, the press release goes on to say, worked as a union laborer to work his way through college. He poured concrete on construction sites which, as any laborer can tell you, is not easy work.
