UAW endorses Dana Nessel for Michigan Attorney General

WARREN, Mich — The UAW has unanimously endorsed Dana Nessel for Michigan Attorney General. Commenting on the endorsement are UAW leadership from Region 1, Region 1A and Region 1D.

REGION 1 – Director Frank Stuglin

“An Attorney General needs to be fearless in protecting the labor rights and civil rights of UAW members and Michiganders. Dana wasn’t afraid to take on these tough fights as an Attorney. And Dana Nessel will stand up for the rights of all people, not just the well-connected.”

REGION 1A – Director Chuck Browning

“Dana Nessel is a fighter. She will take on a culture in Lansing that puts corporations and friends in front of people. Dana will be an Attorney General that makes it a priority to fight for labor, civil rights, environmental conservation, safeguarding seniors, and consumer protections.”

REGION 1D Director Gerald Kariem

“Dana Nessel will fight for families. It’s a simple concept that has gotten lost in Lansing. With Dana, it won’t take a crisis like we have in Flint for the Attorney General to be on your side. Dana Nessel will put people first — always.”

“I am honored and humbled to receive the endorsement of the UAW, Michigan’s largest labor union. As AG, I look forward to joining the UAW on the frontlines to ensure that Michigan’s hardworking men and women have safe workplaces, where our labor laws are respected and enforced, and to work aggressively to support laws that assist workers and their families.”
