Northern MN Union Workers supporting Pres. Trump
I've been hearing rumblings for a long time about Northern MN Union members supporting President Trump.
This isn't surprising to me. After all it was Republicans who backed the legislation for our PERA Correctional Pension.
In Northern Minnesota it's President Trump and Republicans that are supporting the mining industry. Democrats are blocking that Union industry.
The Wall Street Journal is reporting. “It’s a serious problem for us,” said Alan Netland, president of the North East Area Labor Council in Duluth, Minn., which represents 40,000 union members. “People may say, ‘I voted Republican and the world didn’t fall in, so maybe I better keep doing that.’"
One of a Unions biggest strengths has been the Health Care benefits negotiated into contracts. Today's Democrat wants to end that and replace it with Medicare for All!
In interviews with the Journal, union workers who supported Trump in 2016 said 2020 Democrats have “gone so far left” with positions such as forcing union workers off their current healthcare plans and onto Medicare, as well as their calls to eliminate the coal industry entirely and provide free taxpayer-funded healthcare to illegal aliens.

There was a time that DFL stood for Democrats, Farmers and Labor. They peeled off the L a long time ago.
