2024 US Election | Harris & Trump battle for union support
SUMMARY: Vice President Kamala Harris is in Detroit for a virtual event featuring Oprah Winfrey, aiming to unite diverse supporters and emphasize a future-focused message. Both Harris and former President Donald Trump are vying for labor union support in Michigan. The state‘s Teamsters president endorsed Harris, stating, “Michigan is where we’re going to win.” However, nationally, the Teamsters chose not to endorse either candidate, despite an internal poll showing that a majority of members prefer Trump—a significant shift, as Democrats have typically secured their endorsement for decades. Harris has gained backing from most national labor unions.
