Labor Leader George Miller Endorses Buffy

May 25, 2018 | Blog, Endorsements

Sonia and Buffy
I have HUGE news: Former Congressman George Miller has endorsed us for Assembly! 
George Miller represented our East Bay community in the US house of Representatives for 40 years. During that time, he was a tremendous labor advocate and progressive champion, serving as a member of the house natural resources committee and as the chairman of the house Education and Labor Committee.
George has been a leader on labor protections and workers’ rights for decades. That’s why his endorsement means so much to me. 
This is what George had to say:
“I am proud to endorse Buffy Wicks for Assembly District 15. Buffy will be a smart, hard working, and thoughtful representative who can work with wide range of stakeholders to get real results on issues we care about most. She will champion progressive policies that level the playing the field for working families – more funding for public education, stronger labor protections for workers and affordable housing for all our communities.”
These words reinvigorate me and reconfirm that we’re making the right moves to get to Sacramento and continue fighting for our workers in District 15 and across the state. 
George’s endorsement is another piece of evidence that our campaign is attracting the interest of national progressive leaders. That is the kind of momentum we need as we approach the June 5th Primary. So let’s do this.
Thank you,

Buffy
