Farm Workers Union Makes Bold Statement Endorsing Joe Dunn for Congress

Press Release

The United Farm Workers have endorsed Joe Dunn for California's 46th Congressional District, announced the Dunn campaign

"Joe Dunn has been a champion for farm workers and their families," said Arturo Rodríguez, President of the United Farm Workers. "He's visited with our workers in the fields, heard their stories, and taken action to help strengthen their voices for better wages and safer working conditions."

Joe Dunn and his family marched with farm workers from Merced to Sacramento in support of stronger rights for farm workers and he joined farm workers in hunger strikes to protest sweatshop conditions in tomato fields.

The farm workers join Joe's growing list of support from working families, including endorsements from the Orange County Employees Association, Operating Engineers Local 501, Orange County Attorney's Association and Senator Connie Leyva, the former President of the California Labor Federation AFL-CIO.
