IFPTE Attends Event in Support of Endorsed Congressional Candidate, Connie Chan

This week in Washington DC, IFPTE Local 21 Vice President of Legislative and Political Action/Western Area Vice President Frances Hsieh, Legislative Director Faraz Khan, President Matt Biggs, and Local 70 NPEU/Southeastern Area Vice President Amy Chin-Lai, attended a meet and greet event in support IFPTE’s endorsed Congressional candidate, Connie Chan. The event, which was hosted by California Senator Adam Schiff and Representatives Judy Chu and Grace Meng, served as an opportunity for Unions to meet Chan and learn more about her priorities as a potential member of Congress.  

“There’s no better place than Washington, DC for Connie Chan, a former member of Local 21, to reinforce her pro-worker, pro-Union credentials with Unions throughout our nation,” said Hsieh. “We were pleased with the event turnout and are buoyed by this strong showing.”   

Chan is running for California’s 11th Congressional District, which covers nearly the entirety of San Francisco and has been represented by Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi since 1987.
