The BlueGreen Alliance is honored to endorse Kamala Harris for #President and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz for #VicePresident! 🌎💼👷♂️🇺🇸 Harris' support for #unions and #workers, along with Walz's track record in #cleanenergy and #jobgrowth, make them the ideal candidates for mobilizing BlueGreen Alliance’s mission. A statement from our Executive Director Jason Walsh: “The Biden-Harris administration has been the most pro-worker, pro-climate action administration we’ve ever had. We enthusiastically supported Vice President Kamala Harris twice before in our endorsements. She is ready to lead our nation to a clean, prosperous, and equitable future for all. Having worked with him in Minnesota for years to grow clean energy, spur manufacturing jobs, and on numerous other issues, we also support the selection of Tim Walz as the nominee for vice president. “The choice is simple. Former President Trump has promise to make our country a dictatorship and eliminate the investments growing manufacturing and jobs in communities across the country. He failed every level during his four years as president, and we cannot allow him to return to the highest office in the land. Meanwhile, the Biden-Harris administration has invested in workers, climate action, and the future. “Kamala Harris and Tim Walz have earned our endorsement.” Read our full statement here: https://loom.ly/7VoyXC0 #Endorsement #Harris2024 #WalzForVP
