Senator Tim Kaine
One of the reasons Tim Kaine was such an interesting pick as running mate for Hillary Clinton was his stance on right-to-work laws. As Governor of Virginia, Kaine supported his state’s decision to establish right-to-work. Apparently now Hillary has clarified that while Kaine supports the States’ right to choose, he opposes the establishment of right-to-work on the federal level.
This was a necessary clarification for the Clinton campaign as Hillary looks to bring home the union vote. It’s not a hard get when you look at the history. Here’s a fun fact:
“40 percent of union members vote Republican, but 90 percent of union money goes to Democrats.”
And another:
“Labor unions donated nearly a half-billion dollars to Democrats and left-wing causes from 2012 to 2014.”
