Hillary Clinton Wins SEIU Endorsement, Organizing Power From Giant Union

On Monday, her campaign doubled down, pointing to the same attacks as proof she is incapable of exploiting the tragedy for political gain. “The most important thing that happened was that our party said we are with them and we are going to work together to solve this problem and we can only solve it by working together”. “That was good for NY and it was good for the economy and it was a way to rebuke the terrorists who had attacked our country”, she said, her voice rising. Many pundits mocked Ms. Clinton’s suggestion that there was a link between 9/11 and her reliance on Wall Street for campaign contributions.

“Her effort to tug on Americans’ heartstrings instead of explaining her Wall Street ties – on a day that the scars of 9/11 were exposed anew – was at best botched rhetoric”, the editorial board wrote.

According to Fox News, the candidates were asked to talk about the horrifying terror attacks in Paris and weigh in on the statement made by Republican bet Senator Marco Rubio that “we are at war with radical Islam”. “And places like Seattle, like Los Angeles, like NY City, they can go higher”. “She is proud to have stood by her home state economy after disaster struck early in her time as Senator”, the official said, adding “using that to falsely represent her record on financial regulation is unfair and wrong”.

And both have now criticized her September 11 comments.

“I was actually the only one on that debate stage on Saturday who will commit to raising your wages and not your taxes”, Clinton said. “Why do they make millions of dollars of campaign contributions?” AIG an insurance company.

Hillary Clinton accused him of impugning her integrity and Bill Clinton on Sunday dismissed the attacks, with a shake of his head: “It is a stretch”, he said.

“Let’s not be naive about it. Why …has Wall Street been the major campaign contributor to Hillary Clinton?” he said during Saturday’s debate.

Democrats are quickly coming to grips with the reality that Hillary Clinton is a awful candidate. In fact, four of Clinton’s top 10 campaign donors during the election were employees from major Wall Street banks Citigroup ($105,650), Goldman Sachs ($89,920), JP Morgan ($53,750) and UBS ($53,750).

In the scramble every four years by Democratic candidates for union support, there is arguably no bigger prize than the SEIU. “Look, she doesn’t have to mask that, it is what it is”.

Rodney Muhammad, an SEIU 1199 member in MA, echoed the contrasts between Clinton and Sanders that are often mentioned by Labor for Bernie supporters. A few financial watchdog groups have said the repeal was part of the financial deregulations that worsened the 2008 financial crisis. “She’s the only one of them three of us that is opposed to modern version of Glass-Steagall so that we separate speculative banking from traditional banking that all of us ensure”.

“The secretary is really looking for something that is broader and stronger than an 80-year-old law”, Gensler said.
