IFPTE Attends Labor Event in Support of Graham Platner for Senate

Maine senatorial candidate Graham Platner

Secretary-Treasurer, Gay Henson, and Legislative Director, Faraz Khan, attended a labor-backed event this week in Washington, DC in support of Graham Platner to represent the citizens of Maine in the United States Senate. 

The event was sponsored by several Unions and comes after the Maine Labor Movement’s May 12th unified endorsement in which Platner noted “The only time that we ever move the ball forward for justice and equality, the only time that we create policies that are better for working folks is when working people organize and fight for it. That is the legacy of the labor movement in the United States, and so it is with utmost pride and honor that I receive this endorsement today.” 

As the first Labor Union to endorse Graham Platner, IFPTE is proud to support his candidacy.
