ATLANTA — Stacey Abrams received a key endorsement on Wednesday from one of the most powerful unions in the state at an event that highlighted the Democrat’s support for organized labor.
Charlie Flemming, head of the Georgia chapter of the AFL-CIO, said Abrams ‘understands firsthand how the union difference can transform lives and drive progress for generations to come” as he unveiled the group’s backing at the Democrat’s first in-person event in her campaign for governor.
“There is no better champion for Georgia’s working families than Stacey Abrams,” he said, “which is why we are extraordinarily proud to endorse her run for governor.”
