NM-Sen: AFSCME Unanimously Endorses Tom Udall

From AFSCME New Mexico PEOPLE:

Candidate's Experience and Strong Record Drive Decision
Albuquerque, NM -- The American Federation of State, County, and Municipal Employees, which represents over 12,000 city, county, and state employees, has endorsed Congressman Tom Udall for United States Senate. AFSCME is fully dedicated to putting all of its resources to use to make sure Congressman Udall is representing New Mexico as our next U.S. Senator.

On Tuesday evening, AFSCME New Mexico's PEOPLE (political action) Committee voted unanimously to endorse Congressman Udall because he has a strong track record of fighting for New Mexico's workers and has the experience we need.

"Tom is a once-in-a-lifetime elected official. He is the type of person that we never have to second guess where he stands on workers issues.  He has always been with labor and we are very thankful for that," said AFSCME Executive Director Lawrence Rodriquez.

PEOPLE committee member and State employee Christine Serrano added "Congressman Udall has been a wonderful representative for all of us in northern New Mexico.  We are going to miss him as our Representative, but we all know he will make a great U.S. Senator."
