Harris told the Blake family that if she and presidential hopeful Joe Biden were elected, they would fight to implement the Justice in Policing Act and bias training in order to suppress systemic racism.
Harris met with local union workers
Harris also met with the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) and then traveled to Wauwatosa to meet with local union workers. She also planned to meet with local Black business owners and leaders.
In a statement, IBEW Local 494 Business Manager Dean A. Warsh said, “Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have been longtime proponents of organized labor. Kamala saw firsthand how the state-of-the-art training center provides a no-cost education to the region’s men and women who want to become electrical workers.”
“Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have a long record of standing up for union members, and we believe it’s in the best interest of IBEW members to elect Joe president. Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are the best choice for the IBEW, because they have taken the time to listen to what our members have to say about the biggest challenges facing our country. Under the Biden-Harris ticket, IBEW members will always have a seat at the table in a Biden administration,” added Warsh.
